Hi all, I have been playing with 2.1 and have gotten to where I have to configure sendmail for local delivery. I am still running 1.6 in production, and have never used lmtp.
I am running sendmail 8.12.3, and looking through cf/README I see that the only mention of lmtp is in the feature local_lmtp which expects a path of a lmtp capable mailer. I have also seen snippets of sendmail.cf files that will allow delivery to the lmtp socket, but how is that specified in the .mc file? Any working examples? I didn't see anything in the 2.1.4 docs.. What are the advantages of using lmtp? Does it alleviate the need for sendmail to run as the cyrus user when invoking deliver? What other advantages are there? Thanks! Tim
