7 =============================
8 main server
9 =============================
10
11 BTW: if you want to have most mail config-scripts in one directory you have to move the files
12 '/etc/sendmail.cw' and '/etc/virtusertable' to '/etc/mail/'.
13 then you *must* change the entry 'FW/etc/sendmail.cw/' in your '/etc/sendmail.cf'
14 to 'FW/etc/mail/sendmail.cw'.
15 for 'aliases' make a link like: #ln -s /etc/aliases /etc/mail/aliases
16 (i did so because of more overview and sure i've been used to do so ;-)
17
18
19 - edit 'sendmail.cf' (i explained above) and
20 add to 'sendmail.cw' all domains for which sendmail should recieve mails
21
22
23 ============================
24 virtuser
25 ============================
26
27 - edit 'virtusertable' and add all mail-users which mail should be recieved for
28 e.g.:
29 user@domain user # for a real-user
30 info@domain info # aliases (see aliases section)
31 user@domain user@other-domain # forwarding
32 @domain account@some.domain # forward all mails to @domain
33 which could not delivered by rules before
34
35
36
37 - build virtusertable.db from virtusertable
38 e.g.:
39 #makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable </etc/mail/virtusertable
40
41
42
43 ============================
44 aliases
45 ============================
46
47 - edit 'aliases' and add an aliases which you want to map on some user or mail-address or mailing-list
48 e.g:
49 info: admin,user2,user2 # deliver all mails for alias 'info' to admin,user1,user2
50 info: user@domain.com # forward all mails for alias 'info' to user@domain.com
51 info-list: :include:/<path-to-your-file>/info-list # deliver all mails for alias 'info-list' to every
52 user recorded in file 'info-list'
53
54 - create aliases with:
55
56 # newaliases
57
58
59 - know you see the little trick of using 'included'-file for e.g. mailing-lists
60 because you only have to edit the plain-text-formated 'iclided'-file
61 and don't need a '#newalises' if you changed it
62 sample for a 'included'-file:
63
64 user1@domain.com
65 user2@domain.com
