Hi Josh, Sorry to hear that you're not satisfied with the current workaround. Just to be clear, you don't actually need to be able to send email to use esmtp. It has a "mda" configuration directive that will pipe every local mail to it. Here is how I use it: .esmtprc: > mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T" .procmailrc: > :0 > * ^User-Agent: rss2email > rss/ Additionally, starting from version 3.2, there is a "sendmail" configuration directive that you can set to "/usr/bin/esmtp" to do this without having to alias esmtp as the system-wide sendmail. In my opinion it's better (and definitely more Unix-y) to do it this way, but I'll send this upstream. As there's already IMAP support, it would be backwards not to support piping to a MDA. -- Etienne Millon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
