I recompiled sendmail and now get the following when running sendmail -d0.1 -bv.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 8.14.3
Compiled with: DNSMAP LOG MAP_REGEX MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7
NAMED_BIND NETINET NETINET6 NETUNIX NEWDB NIS PIPELINING SASLv2
SCANF STARTTLS TCPWRAPPERS USERDB XDEBUG
============ SYSTEM IDENTITY (after readcf) ============
(short domain name) $w = server
(canonical domain name) $j = server.domain.com
(subdomain name) $m = domain.com
(node name) $k = server.domain.com
========================================================
Recipient names must be specified
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I now have added the following to sendmail.mc.
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)
FEATURE(genericstable, `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')
GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/generics-domains')
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
FEATURE(authinfo, `hash -o /etc/mail/auth/authinfo')
define(`SMART_HOST', `mail.test.com')
define(`confCW_FILE', `-o /etc/mail/local-host-names')
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=IPv6, Family=inet6, Modifiers=O')
I created /etc/mail/auth/authinfo and then did the makemaps to create
the hashd .db file. When trying to email outbound, I still get the
same error in the logs.
...relay=mail.test.com. [public_IP_address], dsn=5.6.0, stat=Data format error
The /etc/mail/auth/authinfo file looks like the following.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AuthInfo:mail.test.com "U:username at isp.com" "P:password"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am using the mail server of the local ISP I use. It doesn't appear
that it even checks for authentication. Please advise.
