Summary: Sendmail Queue mode only
2007-12-25 1:01:00
Unanimous conclusion is to use following approach.
http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/doc/op-sh-4.html link is good source.
In Solaris 8, add MODE="" in /etc/default/sendmail (create this file if it does not exist already)
In Solaris 2.6, your have three choices:
a. borrow /etc/init.d/sendmail from Solaris 8
b. directly edit /etc/init.d/sendmail to remvoe -bd
c. remove/rename /etc/rc2.d/S88sendmail, then add an entry in root's crontab:
0,15,30,45 * * * * /usr/lib/sendmail -q
(or any interval of your choice)
After you're done above modification, bounce sendmail
/etc/init.d/sendmail stop
/etc/init.d/sendmail start
Hi:
If incoming mail is not to be allowed, how would i force sendmail to run in queue mode only.
