Hi

I am trying to allow mail submission and sending on a 5.3-RELEASE box from inside a jail, but not a running MTA...

I have the following in the rc.conf

sendmail_enable="NO"
sendmail_submit_enable="NO" # Start a localhost-only MTA for mail submission
sendmail_outbound_enable="YES" # Dequeue stuck mail (YES/NO).
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="YES" # Dequeue stuck clientmqueue mail (YES/NO).



Since you cannot bind to localhost only in a jail I have that set to NO. The /etc/mail/README file says to change the freebsd.submit.mc file and remake things so that it submits to another host. I have done that by doing the "Change the FEATURE(msp) line to FEATURE(msp, hostname) where hostname is the fully qualified hostname of the alternative host." and then "'make install-submit-cf' in /etc/mail/".


When I try to do a mail on the command line, I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/chad# can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied
Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser.


Where do I set this TrustedUser and how do I make the mail program work as a TrustedUser?

I grepped TrustedUser in /etc/mail/* and got

freebsd.cf:#O TrustedUser=root
freebsd.submit.cf:O TrustedUser=smmsp
machine.com.submit.cf:O TrustedUser=smmsp
sendmail.cf:#O TrustedUser=root
submit.cf:O TrustedUser=smmsp

so it seems to be set to smmsp which is a valid user in the password file.

Thanks for any help or pointers on getting this to work.

Thanks
Chad
