 |
|
I'm having trouble setting up the email functionality, and following some other threads in this area I have tried the following test:
echo "testing mail" | ssmtp Azzerhoden@somewhere.com
and
echo "testing mail" | /usr/sbin/sendmail Rober_M_Frame@somewhere.net
In both instances I have received the same error:
ssmtp: RCPT TO:<Azzerhoden@somewhere.com> (550 Sender verify failed)
sendmail: RCPT TO:<Rober_M_Frame@somewhere.net> (550 Sender verify failed)
Any thoughts on where I should begin? |

Perhaps you need SMTP authentication?

Additionally, I am logged in a root for the test, and /usr/sbin/sendmail is a wrapper for exim.
I received neither email. |

Hmmmm, found the following through a search on google:

Do you think the error message is because I do not have an email account setup for root?
If so, can someone tell me how to set this up? |
