I desperately need help to get my sendmail configuration working again.
I followed this guide: Unmemorable Memories » Blog Archive » Enabling SMTP-AUTH for Sendmail on Debian Linux 3.1
to enable TLS and AUTH in sendmail and now I get an error I just cannot find any information about on the great wise internet.
I can find no reference anywhere on how to solve it and when I check my Makefile it seems to me (I'm have very little knowledge about Makefiles) that everything should be OK in it.
Please please help me!

Hi All,
I have a problem sending mail to a host which seems to have sendmail configured to use Ident port (113) to check back on the mail sender.
My problem is that this port is not enabled on the firewalls between sender and receiver so the ident checking and hence the mail is failing and... (0 Replies)
Hi. One of my company's customers requires mails to be sent to them to use TLS. Thanks to some good documentation on the web, I've got this mostly figured out, but now I'm stuck at generating the CSR.

We are running HP-UX 11v1 and are about to upgrade sendmail to 8.13.3 to allow support for TLS.

Do I need to arrange for a public certificate to... (3 Replies)

saslfinger(1) General Commands Manual saslfinger(1)NAME
saslfinger - A utility to collect SMTP AUTH relevant configuration for Postfix
SYNOPSIS
saslfinger [-chs]
DESCRIPTION
saslfinger is a utility to collect SMTP AUTH relevant configuration for Postfix. Depending on how you run it, it will search for informa-
tion on server-side or client-side SMTP AUTH configuration settings in Postfix and Cyrus SASL.
OPTIONS -c If you run saslfinger with the option -c it will collect data required for client-side SMTP AUTH. Client-side SMTP AUTH is when
Postfix smtp daemon uses SMTP AUTH to authenticate itself with a remote mail server that offers SMTP AUTH.
saslfinger will try to telnet to all hosts listed in smtp_sasl_password_maps, if it may read smtp_sasl_password_maps
The telnet test verifies your host is able to reach the remote servers and shows what AUTH mechanisms they offer - in some cases
this is required to debug client-side SMTP AUTH.
Important: By default smtp_sasl_password_maps must be read-only to root, since these maps contain the usernames and passwords to
authenticate. If you run saslfinger as root access will be no problem, but saslfinger will fail if you lack the permissions to
access smtp_sasl_password_maps.
If you want to run the telnet test, but don't want to run saslfinger as root change permissions of smtp_sasl_password_maps so that
the user running saslfinger may access smtp_sasl_password_maps while you debug.
*note: You don't need to worry about saslfinger doing anything with the username or password stored next to the remote hosts in your
smtp_sasl_password_maps; saslfinger completely ignores these informations!
-h If you run saslfinger with the option -h it will print a little help message that tells you about the options you can use.
-s If you run saslfinger with the option -s it will collect data required for server-side SMTP AUTH. Server-side SMTP AUTH is when
Postfix smtpd daemon offers SMTP AUTH to mail clients.
