Package: sendmail
Version: 8.14.3-9
During the sendmail first-time installation I got
Errors in generating sendmail.cf
*** ERROR: FEATURE() should be before MAILER()
*** MAILER(`local') must appear after FEATURE(`always_add_domain')*** ERROR: FEATURE() should be before MAILER()
*** MAILER(`local') must appear after FEATURE(`allmasquerade')*** ERROR: FEATURE() should be before MAILER()
sendmail.cf.error says the same. The bad /etc/mail/sendmail.mc
is attached.
I don't expect a predefined sendmail configuration to work,
but wouldn't you agree that it should not produce error messages?
Regards
Harri

*** *** *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** *** ***
Everything you need to support STARTTLS (encrypted mail transmission
and user authentication via certificates) is installed and configured
but is *NOT* being used.
To enable sendmail to use STARTTLS, you need to:
1) Add this line to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and optionally
to /etc/mail/submit.mc:
include(`/etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4')dnl
2) Run sendmailconfig
3) Restart sendmail
Updating /etc/hosts.allow, adding "sendmail: all".
Please edit /etc/hosts.allow and check the rules location to
make sure your security measures have not been overridden -
it is common to move the sendmail:all line to the *end* of
the file, so your more selective rules take precedence.
