meillo@186: Simple Setup
meillo@186: ============
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: You want
meillo@186: --------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: - submit mail on stdin by calling masqmail on the commandline
meillo@186: - submit mail with SMTP from the local machine
meillo@186: - let masqmail deliver mail locally to the system mailboxes /var/mail/*
meillo@186: - let masqmail forward non-local mail through a smart host
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: This is like the simple-local-setup plus the forwarding.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Set up
meillo@186: ------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Follow the description in INSTALL.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: A common configure call would be:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     ./configure --enable-auth --enable-ident
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Configuration
meillo@186: -------------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: You need a config file like this one:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     host_name = "foo.example.org"
meillo@186:     online_routes.default = /etc/masqmail/default.route
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: (Substitute a real hostname, of course.)
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Addionally you need to create the route config file like:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     protocol = smtp
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     # where to relay to; the address and port of the smart host
meillo@186:     mail_host = "mail.gmx.net:25"
meillo@186:     # use the wrapper to enable encryption
meillo@186:     #wrapper = "openssl s_client -quiet -connect mail.gmx.net:465 2>/dev/null"
meillo@186:     
meillo@186:     do_correct_helo = true
meillo@186:     
meillo@186:     # rewrite the From addresses to ones visible from the outside
meillo@186:     map_return_path_addresses = "meillo: schnalke4@gmx.de"
meillo@186:     map_h_from_addresses = "meillo: markus schnalke <schnalke4@gmx.de>"
meillo@186:     
meillo@186:     # it's good to use "login" only if the connection is encrypted
meillo@186:     auth_name = "login"
meillo@186:     #auth_name = "cram-md5"
meillo@186:     auth_login = "UID_OR_EMAIL_ADDRESS"
meillo@186:     auth_secret = "PASSWORD"
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Starting the daemon
meillo@186: -------------------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Listening for SMTP connections on a port requires masqmail to run as
meillo@186: daemon. You probably want to start masqmail as daemon each time the
meillo@186: system comes up. How you have to do that is system dependent.
meillo@186: /etc/rc.local is a good try to add the daemon call, because this file
meillo@186: seems to be frequently available.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     /usr/local/sbin/masqmail -bd -q10m
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: This starts masqmail in daemon mode and does a queue run every ten
meillo@186: minutes.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Check the setup
meillo@186: ---------------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Like in simple-local-setup plus ...
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Send a mail to a remote location:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     $ echo "some text" | mail foo@somewhereelse.example.org
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Check if it is queued:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     $ masqmail -bp
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Deliver it with:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     $ masqmail -qo default
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Check the queue contents again.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: You need to do such queue runs for online routes explicitely. For
meillo@186: instance by cron.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Automatic queue runs
meillo@186: --------------------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: You can also tell masqmail to send queued mails through a route each
meillo@186: time the daemon does a queue run. Therefor you need to tell masqmail
meillo@186: that it is online and can use the default route to deliver mail.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Add this to masqmail.conf:
meillo@186: 
meillo@186:     online_detect = "pipe"
meillo@186:     online_pipe = "/bin/echo default"
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Now masqmail will send online mail automatically through the default
meillo@186: route, each time it does a queue run (every ten minutes).
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: In case of problems
meillo@186: -------------------
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Have a look at the log file: /var/log/masqmail/masqmail.log
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Set the debug level in masqmail.conf, restart the daemon, redo the
meillo@186: test, and look at the debug file: /var/log/masqmail/debug.log
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: If you use a wrapper, test it manually and interactively on the
meillo@186: command line.
meillo@186: 
meillo@186: Ask on the mailing list: <masqmail@marmaro.de>
