I'm trying to set up extmail on LNX 3.0.8 on Digital Unix.
When I send a msg to my ext.id ([email protected]) from a POP3 compliant
client I find in /usr/var/spool/mail/in/f0008957/control.dat
MailID: 0000006B00000016
BEGIN Error
Text: 279 [email protected] incorrect external id (for sender of mail)
END
BEGIN Deliver
Ident: root
END
The corporate mail_srv relays [email protected] to the OS account
[email protected] (lnx server). I can state that this step
works fine because I can see from mailx incoming pending messages for
lnxtest.
Anyway lnxtest is also the OS-login of the lnx-account lnxtest
(too!) using as ext.id [email protected].
When I try to send msg from lnx using lnxtest to an external user I
just get an exxxxxxxx directory on /usr/var/spool/mail/out but
control.dat doen't complain at all.
What can be wrong ?

Guiseppo, From the description in .0 I am guessing that you are using [email protected] as external identification whereas you should be using just lnxtest. Does this guess makes sense ? Berd Schimmel | |||||
| 2224.2 | Ext.ID is localnode_accountname | ROM01::WIRELESS | Mon May 12 1997 11:04 | 9 | |
Hi,
that's right !!!
Reading the User manual I was guessing that the systax
wrong. Anyway it seems that account name cannot be more than 20 chars.
Thanks a lot,
_Giuseppe ... not Guiseppo ;-)
