RE: FW: Sending Email from script



I re-ran it again with the following options:

Split config into small files?   No
General Type of Mail Configuration		Internet site; mail is
sent and received directly using SMTP
System mail name:		hostname.mydomain.edu
IP Addresses for incoming SMTP			172.16.0.39 (servers IP
address)
Other destinations for which mail is accepted
hostname.mydomain.edu
Domains to relay mail for:		<<Blank>>		(could
this be my problem?)
Machines to replay mail for:		<<Blank>>
Keep number of DNS-queries minimal?		No
Delivery method for local mail:		Mbox


Do I have something specified wrong?

how is your mailer configured? looks to me like you need to re-run

dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config 

and pick an option that allows outgoing mail. 

what option did you pick in the reconfigure you mentioned previously?

A
