Re: [cobalt-users] POP before SMTP not working

I've been running a Cobalt RAQ4 at my company for 2 years now and have
never relied on POP before SMTP. I've always had remote users go directly
to their ISPs for SMTP. However, I am running into a scenario in which I
HAVE to use POP before SMTP and it doesn't appear to be working.

The functionality is actived in the Control panel, and I can verify that
the user is POPping before sending. I'm getting a relay denied error in
the logs...

I'm on the latest solarspeed Sendmail patch.

Any ideas?


when you did the sendmail updates, did you "fix" the pop before SMTP?

You may notice POP before SMTP not working, and also your mailing lists may break.
If so, in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf do the following:

Search for:

# Access list database (for spam stomping)
Kaccess hash -o /etc/mail/access

After that, add the following:

# Pop-before-smtp secondary access hash
Kpopauth hash -a<MATCH> /etc/mail/popip.db

Search for:

# location of alias file
O AliasFile=/etc/mail/aliases

Directly after that, add:

O AliasFile=/etc/mail/aliases.majordomo
