10 =============================
11 main server
12 =============================
13
14 BTW: if you want to have most mail config-scripts in one directory you have to move the files
15 '/etc/sendmail.cw' and '/etc/virtusertable' to '/etc/mail/'.
16 then you *must* change the entry 'FW/etc/sendmail.cw/' in your '/etc/sendmail.cf'
17 to 'FW/etc/mail/sendmail.cw'.
18 for 'aliases' make a link like: #ln -s /etc/aliases /etc/mail/aliases
19 (i did so because of more overview and sure i've been used to do so ;-)
20
21
22 - edit 'sendmail.cf' (i explained above) and
23 add to 'sendmail.cw' all domains for which sendmail should recieve mails
24
25
26 ============================
27 virtuser
28 ============================
29
30 - edit 'virtusertable' and add all mail-users which mail should be recieved for
31 e.g.:
32 user@domain user # for a real-user
33 info@domain info # aliases (see aliases section)
34 user@domain user@other-domain # forwarding
35 @domain account@some.domain # forward all mails to @domain
36 which could not delivered by rules before
37
38
39
40 - build virtusertable.db from virtusertable
41 e.g.:
42 #makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable </etc/mail/virtusertable
43
44
45
46 ============================
47 aliases
48 ============================
49
50 - edit 'aliases' and add an aliases which you want to map on some user or mail-address or mailing-list
51 e.g:
52 info: admin,user2,user2 # deliver all mails for alias 'info' to admin,user1,user2
53 info: user@domain.com # forward all mails for alias 'info' to user@domain.com
54 info-list: :include:/<path-to-your-file>/info-list # deliver all mails for alias 'info-list' to every
55 user recorded in file 'info-list'
56
57 - create aliases with:
58
59 # newaliases
60
61
62 - know you see the little trick of using 'included'-file for e.g. mailing-lists
63 because you only have to edit the plain-text-formated 'iclided'-file
64 and don't need a '#newalises' if you changed it
65 sample for a 'included'-file:
66
67 user1@domain.com
68 user2@domain.com
