Existing SMTP server minimum configuration

[Fragman]

Hello,
I'm on RedHat Enterprise 4. I have an existing SMTP server and I want to use it to send email from my RedHat server. I do not want to configure sendmail since I already have an SMTP server. (Sendmail is an SMTP server?)
Is this possible in a minimum configuration to use the existing SMTP server? "
Thank you

Hi

Is this possible in a minimum configuration to use the existing SMTP server?

Yes it is possible. You have to 1st place in the install tool ssmtp

yum install ssmtp

Uncomment and modifies or creates the following line in / etc / ssmtp / ssmtp.conf:

mail =@ IP_SMTP:25

To send mail via the terminal:

/ usr / sbin / ssmtp-oi @ mail_destinataire <<EOF
> Subject: .....
> Body of your mail ...
> EOF

Hope this will help you.

Hi
Thank you very much!. That was good, I received an email
Now, should I get email, to send me an email via PHP (Apache + PHP is installed on this machine)
If anyone knows any chance ... I'll also post in PHP. Any advice on this.

Hello,
I have a configuration RH4 EL only command line. I want to send emails in planned tasks via ssmtp. But I do not know how to put a PJ in the mail or view the contents of this PJ?
following lines of code that you gave:

/ usr / sbin / ssmtp-oi @ mail_dest <<EOF
> Subject: .....
> Body of the email ...
> EOF

I manage to send a mail via my SMTP server via the external configuration ssmtp.conf.
I would like to just send the content with the PJ. How can i do this?
Thank you in advance.
