I believe he/she erroneously thinks that "Linux" is Red Hat Enterprise Linux or RHEL. A lot of people think Red Hat owns Linux, for some reason.

Do you just want this server to send mail out? If so:

in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:

find this line:

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl

put a dnl in front of it and restart sendmail

to test run this echo "this is a test" |mail -s "test" <emailaddress>

Or do you want it to serve as a SMTP server for multiple systems?

Hi,

Thanks alot for the reply.

SMTP service has been configured to send mails.Tested and working fine .I am able to send mails as root user.Do I need to give any previlage to another user other than root like called applmgr to send test mails.
applmgr user is not able to send test mails through SMTP.

Thanks
Jack
