4 Send three mails, using different options, to stdin of masqmail, which
|
meillo@63
|
5 relays it per STMP to a local MTA listening at localhost:25.
|
meillo@63
|
6
|
meillo@63
|
7 So use it only if you have an MTA running on your box (sendmail,
|
meillo@63
|
8 exim, qmail or whatever, or masqmail when you have it already
|
meillo@63
|
9 installed).

|
11 If it works, you should get three mails.
|
meillo@63
|
12 Two log files, masqmail.log and debug.log will also be created within
|
meillo@63
|
13 this directory. They may give some information if anything went wrong.
|

|
14
|

|
15 The scripts assume that your login name corresponds to your mailbox
|
meillo@63
|
16 (quite probable) and that your MTA listens on port 25 with the
|
meillo@63
|
17 interface which corresponds to the hostname as returned by the shell
|
meillo@63
|
18 command "hostname" (without quotes...), also very probable.
|
meillo@63
|
19
|
meillo@63
|
20 If the log files reveal that your MTA is not willing to relay, you may
|
meillo@63
|
21 have to qualify the hostname. You might want to do this in a way
|
meillo@63
|
22 similar to:
|
meillo@63
|
23
|
meillo@63
|
24 sed 's/RECV_HOST/foo.example.org/' test.tpl >test
