downloadpkgsrc-72738bf76c7c1ce8106ff5b154b09d7120288dec.tar.gz
Update to nullmailer-100RC7.
Changes for pkgsrc: * Added an rc.d/nullmailer script * Added brief instructions on how to set up nullmailer in MESSAGE. * Changed spool directory from /var/nullmailer to /var/spool/nullmailer Changes in nullmailer itself: Changes in version 1.00RC7 - Fixed typo in smtp protocol module that caused HELO to be sent without a hostname. - Added a one-shot mode to nullmailer-send, triggered by setting the pausetime to zero. Note: If no further bugs are found, this will become the official version 1.00 release. Changes in version 1.00RC6 - Protocol modules now report all failure and success messages. - Removed the whole gethostname/getdomainname mess and replaced it with code to read the hostname from the "me" control file, and the default domain name from the "defaultdomain" control file. - Fixed a bug that would cause lines starting with a period to have that period stripped when it was sent via SMTP. - Added some missing includes to fix compilation failures in various sources. - Fixed a bug in the setenv function in sendmail.cc. NOTE! Make sure to set up the new "me" control file before using this version. The RPM install does this automatically.

+
+To use nullmailer, you will need to perform the following steps:
+
+1. Create a ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/nullmailer/remotes file. The file should
+ contain a line with the name of your relay host and the
+ relay protocol to be used, eg.
+
+ smtp.relayhost.domain smtp
+
+2. Back up /etc/mailer.conf and create a new mailer.conf with the
+ following lines
+
+ # Use "nullmailer" as replacement for "sendmail".
+ sendmail ${PREFIX}/libexec/nullmailer/sendmail
+ send-mail ${PREFIX}/libexec/nullmailer/sendmail
+ mailq ${PREFIX}/libexec/nullmailer/mailq
+
+3. Copy ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/rc.d/nullmailer to /etc/rc.d/nullmailer
+ and add
+
+ nullmailer=YES
+
+ to /etc/rc.conf. Other MTA's, (eg. sendmail, exim), should be set
+ to NO.
+
+4. Stop any other running MTA. Now start nullmailer by issuing the
+ command
+
+ /etc/rc.d/nullmailer start
+
+5. You may need to add further configuration files to the directory
+ ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/nullmailer. These include the `adminaddr',
+ `defaultdomain', `defaulthost', `idhost', `me', and `pausetime'
+ files. This will depend on your local setup. See the
+ nullmailer(7), nullmailer-queue(8), and nullmailer-send(8) manual
+ pages for details.
