Set up SMTP server on Unix B.11.11 U 9000/800

[diwa]

Hi,

I need to set up the process of sending mail to client. i checked in unix send mail is configured. I have given ps -ef | grep sendmail :

root 2430 1 0 Aug 21 ? 8:28 sendmail: accepting connections on port 25

I guess send mail is already configured.

First of all i want to check that it is working. For that i tried :

mailx -s "hello" abc@rediffmail.com

Then is getting halted.

Could some one suggest what cmd should i use?

Thanks

Diwa,

after you run

#mailx -s "hello" abc@rediffmail.com

Did you do "Control D" to send ?

I tested, it is working

Hi Diwa,

For Checking Sendmail please do the below steps ..

1)sendmail -v -d8.99 -d38.99 (U can type the message after executing this cmd and do cntrl + d )
2)echo $?
3)mailq
