It seems to me that sendmail is not accepting local smtp connections: Sep 29 14:00:06 coral sm-msp-queue[11799]: o8THO6vW011692: to=t...@email.com, ctladdr=me (myid/mygrp), delay=00:36:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=210140, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] Sep 29 14:00:06 coral sm-msp-queue[11799]: o8TEe1OX009848: to=root, delay=03:20:05, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=931826, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] Sep 29 14:00:06 coral sm-msp-queue[11799]: o8TAT6ga009319: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=07:31:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=2100639, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] On googling for the cure, I found some posts that suggest to tweak daemon options. Here is my current setting: r...@coral:/etc/mail# grep smtp *.mc sendmail.mc:dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet6, Name=MTA-v6, Port=smtp, Addr=::1')dnl sendmail.mc:DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet, Name=MTA-v4, Port=smtp, Addr=127.0.0.1')dnl sendmail.mc:MAILER(`smtp')dnl $ grep DaemonPortOptions *.cf sendmail.cf:O DaemonPortOptions=Family=inet, Name=MTA-v4, Port=smtp, Addr=127.0.0.1 sendmail.cf:O DaemonPortOptions=Family=inet, Name=MSP-v4, Port=submission, M=Ea, Addr=127.0.0.1 submit.cf:O DaemonPortOptions=Name=NoMTA, Addr=127.0.0.1, M=E Anything wrong with it? How can I enable sendmail to accept local smtp connections for apps like emacs? (sendmail from the command line works fine) Thanks. -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
