Hi, I just upgraded my sendmail from Potato to Woody and Netscape started asking for a username for the mail server.
After searching ( looking or the wrong thing! ) for a few hours I found a note about turning off mail auth in netscape on this page http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html , and I added user_pref("mail.auth_login", false); to my .netscape/preferences.js . That fixed the problem and I can send mail again but I originally wanted to turn off the auth request in sendmail and I still can't see how this is done. Has anyone else had this happen or is it a side effect of of my particular sendmail setup? If it is common maybe a little note could go in sendmail's README.Debian. Here's my sendmail.mc: divert(0) include(/usr/share/sendmail/sendmail.cf/m4/cf.m4) VERSIONID(`@(#)sendmail.mc on trigger by Glenn Ramsey 20010311') OSTYPE(debian)dnl LOCAL_CONFIG define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp:smtp.paradise.net.nz')dnl FEATURE(`virtusertable', `hash /etc/mail/virtusertable')dnl FEATURE(`use_cw_file')dnl FEATURE(`relay_entire_domain')dnl FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl FEATURE(`nocanonify')dnl FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl FEATURE(`nouucp', `reject')dnl define(`confTO_HOSTSTATUS', `10s')dnl define(`confME_TOO')dnl MAILER_DEFINITIONS MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl LOCAL_CONFIG MASQUERADE_AS(componic.com)dnl ## Custom configurations below (will be preserved) g -- Glenn Ramsey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.componic.com
