How do I configure to change both, the FROM and the TO field?
mailer.conf refers to ssmtp for , and is used by . Unfortunately, from- and to-fields in those mails only contain the local username and can not be delivered by the external mail server. Using mail(1) from the CLI does respect all the aliases from mail.rc and mails get delivered.
What's a proper way to setup system with external on ? Changing would be ok, if needed.

@rwatt @malte No. If you want to use stock RELEASE versions, use freebsd-update, it's the simplest way. Using source is only needed when you want to change build-time options (which I do, e.g. to leave out , , and a few other things from base).

Since you mention Xenix, here's a couple of interesting historical tidbits:

One of the ironies of history is that , which SCO Xenix had instead of , would have been far more popular had it been around just a decade later.

It's also interesting that if one is writing stuff for a virtual terminal on FreeBSD, one still has traces of Xenix around. The keymap(5) file format is much the same as the one.

pub-relayは1時間ごとに再起動すれば安定してるからw
これでいいやになってしまった。

オープンリレーなのは気になってるけど、拡散力の低いリレーを利用する鯖缶はいないだろうから結果的には無問題。

オープンリレーというと、設定を盛大に間違えたsendmailみたいだ。

@darkuncle @ChrisShort interesting ok I understand...a different take I guess, I've worked previously at and and have been running my own mail servers for myself and friends' domains for 25+ years, and never had any issues with reliability or deliverability (other than the occasional outage or uprade problem of course)

I've run my own server since 1989. At one point I was fluent in configuration-file syntax. I still run my own server, which I've been doing for nearly as long.
At first it was just to learn how to do it, then it was to provide free services to others in the community who needed them, then it was to take a stand for privacy and against centralization.
Now I'm considering running my own server for the same reasons. As if I had time for that. 😉

I used to host a dedicated email server + webmail years ago using Sendmail + Squirrelmail.

📨 SquirrelMail is worth knowing about / trying.

Check it: squirrelmail.org

It's GPL.

One of my instances was no longer able to send e-mails. (It tried to send almost empty e-mails, but its smarthost discarded those.)

It was the one that used as its . GitLab recommends either or as an MTA. Switching to Postfix solved this issue for me.

Making sure that Postfix uses the capability of its smarthost took longer than expected.

It's also rather annoying that on Debian systems, postfix by default accepts connections from anywhere on the Internet even though I asked debconf to set up a “satellite system”.

When using Nullmailer, I just had to put the line “smtp.domain.tld smtp --port=25 --starttls” in /etc/nullmailer/remotes.

For Postfix, I need this:
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt

Your mileage may vary.

Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of sendmail?

I want to send from a script. I am on FreeBSD, if that matters.

% echo "Hi" |sendmail -s "Hi" ADDR
WARNING: RunAsUser for MSP ignored, check group ids (egid=1001, want=25)
can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied
Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser.

I try adding the user to /etc/group smmsp (gid=25), and it doesn't help.

Help?
