it took longer than expected but now I am about to roll out scalix CE on a small network. Now I have some small things that confuse me. One at a time:
The scalix server is inside a corporate network, no direct access to it from the outside and dynamic ip addresses are used so sendimg directly to mail recipients other than the local scalix users would not work due to RBL spamlists (error 550 iirc), no big deal, it works in general (even if fetchmail is not set up yet). I did set up a /etc/mail/authinfo and in there for every user one line. As I did this, somewhere in the process (took me a while to figure out what to do to make the changes known to scalix / the system in general, so don't remember when exactly) "make" or "omsendin" (as said, dunno) or whatever complained about duplicate entries in /etc/mail/authinfo for the smarthost I use. I tested this a day later, added another scalix user (same e-mail domain as the others) but did not provide an entry for this user in authinfo, sent a mail, tail -f /var/log/mail.log, mail sent correctly, mail arrived...
No big deal here too... for mail users with the exact same mail domain / smarthost, but what if mail users with other mail domains hosted at other service providers come into the game?
Btw. this is on Debian Etch... some glitches during install but works in general
greetings
Michael
