new to the list - sendmailcf

[madhombre]

please let me know if I do anything wrong, I am new to this list and quite new 
to list sin gerneral.

Hello, nice to meet you all.

I am also quite new to unix, so please be patient!

my set up

I have 3 unix boxes, one gateway/mail server, one web server and one client

The gateway uses netbsd and has qmail running quite nicely on it.

The client is the one running Debian, it is an old laptop with not much ram so 
I had to use Slink (2.1)

I want to collect email from my mail server and also my isp.

I have fetchmail, sendmail and pine running and it is almost working, but not 
quite.

I came across a page ont he web which expalins how to do what I want to do, BUT 
it says I need sendmail and sendmailcf

I have sendmail but not the sendmailcf, I looked on redhat and they have it.

Can I get it, I can't even find the source anywhere.

Where can I get it from, pacjage or source, either one.

OR someone can try to fix what I have now.

It works but all the mail goes into one root file, I want to break it up into 1 
file per message.

Pine can't handle it at the moment, I am opretty sure because it is all one 
file.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks.

I found out about sendmail.cf

I even installed procmail!!

Why do the messages all go into one file and not into 1 file per message???

This is driving me nuts!


Thanks.

mail problems

[madhombre]

ok I was told sendmail was too complicated

then I was told to install ssmtp, I did

The guy asked me to test it using
mail ...

I don't have mail!!!

I don't see a mail package under debain, I can only see MTA's and mail readers 
when I look through the packages file

where do I get the mail command from?

terminals - tty

[madhombre]

I was wondering if there was anyway of running commands on different ternimals 
on startup

I use my debian laptop to as a client and also to monitor my 2 servers, can I 
auto ssh into the servers on tty2 and tty3, maybe even do shutdown command on 
all three 
(order has to be correct!)

just wondering
