Gagan Firstly,Its always better to configure sendmail using m4 macro with .mc file then further for tuning u can go for .cf file.
Secondly, If you can configure sendmail then you don't require any SMTP server coz that itself will act as SMTP server, What you will need is an internet gateway to through your mails on internet or if you are having Wan Ip or you are using dialup connection on that machine then theres again no use for internet gateway Regards, Dhruv Network Engineer FCS Software Solutions A-86, Sector-57 Noida-201301 Ph. +91-0120-2583703 Xtn-276/123(India) Ph. +1-866-388-3432 Xtn.-334/345(US) -----Original Message----- From: Gagan Grewal To: multiple recipients of Sent: 2/26/03 3:49 PM Subject: [ilugd]: Is anybody using sendmail from their PCs ? Hi Folks! I want to know wether sendmail can/should be used from a PC or not ? I was able to send mails over to internet using sendmail from my PC after clobbering a couple of lines in the sendmail.cf. It works just fine ... but seems a little slow. I want to know wether I can use sendmail from my PC to transfer mails over to an SMTP server (having a registered address) such as VSNL since I have a valid mail account on that server ... and let that server do the remaining of sending job. ( Like one usually does using programs like Outlook, Ximian, KMail, Mutt etc. ) Has anybody configured sendmail on his PC in order to relay outbound/internet bound mails through an SMTP server ? I tried SMART_HOST and nullclient ... but doesn't work.
