Full Discussion: Configuring Sendmail as a client only, how?
Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Configuring Sendmail as a client only, how? Post 302971533 by c3rb3rus on Thursday 21st of April 2016 11:22:44 AM
Old 04-21-2016
Our programs and 3rd party programs call the "mail" program directly, so I would need to rename /usr/bin/mail to something else, create my script and call the renamed mail.

Is there a way to do this in the sendmail config (possibly via their very confusing rewrite rules?) so to avoid messing with system binaries.
