You need to use some sort of mailing system, whether it be sendmail, postfix, exim, etc. You will need to configure it to send mail through a "smarthost". The smarthost is your ISP's mail server. The process would then go like this:
1) BackupPC sends email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) sendmail (or postfix, exim, etc) recognizes that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not a local user and forwards the mail to the smarthost 3) your ISP gets the mail from your local mail system and sends it on to [EMAIL PROTECTED] An alternative that someone else suggested is to use ssmtp. I've never used it, but I think it simplifies your configuration a little bit by offering less features than sendmail, etc. -Rob Gustavo Azambuja wrote: > Hi, i need send alerts and reports without sendmail, and use smtp form my > ISP. i can do that?? > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. > Still grepping through log files to find problems?
