Send email using Exchange as SMTP - UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

fidodido · #1 01-17-2006

Hi. I have a Tru64 Unix V5.1 server that I would like to send emails using an exchange server we have on the same network as the smtp of this machine. What are the requirements/configuration that I need to do in order to make this possible. We are planning on emailing error messages and such from this server using our own exchange server to do so. Thanks

Just set your Exchange server as the relay host in your sendmail.cf file (may be located in /etc/ or /etc/mail/)

Thanks RTM. I figured out the server is on the same domain as the Exchange server, and so I am using it as as relay server. I modified sendmail.cf as you suggested, and now everything is working fine ( allthough mailsetup runs a Wizard which modifies this on a Screen->Click next GUI, very handy ). Thanks again for the suggestion.
