[SUMMARY] Many Sendmail.cf Question
2007-12-25 10:37:00
My original problem is :
------------------------
My company already exist a centralize email machine. What I
want is set up a mail server for my department. I already
install sendmail v8.8.5 (Solaris 2.5.1)
Requirement :
---------------------
A) One main mail server, "mydepartment",
Other machine set as null client.
B) If the "TO" user not belong to my department, mail
system forward those email to company email
server "companymail".
C) user receive email send by my department staff
From : userA -> From : userA (No Change)
D) other department staff receive email send by my department staff
From : user A -> From : userA@mydepartment
E) outsides receive email send by my department staff
From : userA -> From : userA@mydepartment.domain.com
M4 macro for my department mail server :
----------------------------------------
include(`../m4/cf.m4')
VERSIONID(`mydepartment.mc Man Wu 4 June 1997')
OSTYPE(solaris2)dnl
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
I can deliver the email, when I send to other department (Requirement D),
From : userA -> From : userA@mydepartment.domain.com
My question :
-------------
Q1) How to configure in order to meet my requirement
Q2) During my testing, for undeliver email will send to postmaster with
body of messages, how can I delete the body due to privacy
Q3) What is the different between "MAIL HUB" and "SMART HOST"
04) If I define the userdb like this
userdb file:
------------
userA Man_Wu_userA
The outgoing will be rewritten as "Man_Wu_userA", if someone send
the email to "Man_Wu_userA@mydepartment.domain.com", Is userA
receive this email ?
05) What is the priority between alias (on NIS+) and userdb,
Alisas file (on matter on files or NISplus)
-----------
userA:userB
User db
-------
userA Man_Wu_userA
Suggestion from Rich Pieri :
----------------------------
You should get "the bat book" (sendmail) from O'Reilly & Associates, by
Eric Allman and others. It is the canonical reference for sendmail, and
you should have it if you are doing anything "funky" with your sendmail.cf.
Result :
--------
So far, I am study "bat book", and not solve any question yet ..
