Package: nullmailer Version: 1:1.00-3 Severity: important Hi,
Thanks for including my IPv6 patch...the only problem is that for some reason I do not think it was enabled in the binary (i386) release :( Using 1.00-3 from unstable in /var/log/mail.log I get (my mailserver is 'smtp'): --- Nov 20 17:21:59 localhost nullmailer[9886]: smtp: Failed: Connect failed Nov 20 17:21:59 localhost nullmailer[1827]: Sending failed: Host or network unreachable --- If I 'apt-get source nullmailer' and compile I get: --- Nov 20 17:23:57 localhost nullmailer[1827]: Starting delivery: protocol:smtp host: smtp file: 1132407134.3602 Nov 20 17:23:59 localhost nullmailer[10058]: smtp: Failed: 554 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Relay access denied Nov 20 17:23:59 localhost nullmailer[1827]: Sending failed: Permanent error in sending the message --- Obviously now a completely different error message, but now the fault lies with me and a misconfigured mailserver :) I'm on a 100% IPv6 network and so I'm guessing that the binary release is making an IPv4 only connection and thats why it is sulking. As /usr/lib/nullmailer/smtp is rather quick, I cannot attach an 'strace' to the process to put proof to this but I think the recompile from source shows that somethings afoot. When you compile the package, does './configure' come back with: ---- [snipped] checking whether named pipes are buggy... no checking for setenv... yes checking for srandom... yes checking for getaddrinfo... yes <---- important line configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile [snipped] ---- Thats the line which 'enables' IPv6 connectivity.
