I am running Sendmail-8.13.1 and Cyrus-imapd-2.2.8. Problem is Sendmail does not know which destination addresses are valid and so tries to deliver [EMAIL PROTECTED] to cyrus. Now even if the mailbox does not exist Sendmail hands it off to Cyrus, which complains that its undeliverable generating a message to postmaster. The mail reply to address is also usually bogus so I end up getting two mails for every attempt to a non existent mailbox.
Now I looked at http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/. I can compile sendmail with SOCKETMAP, that's simple enough. Question is were the patches for cyrusv2 ever integrated in Sendmail-8.13.1
Socketmap support is present in sendmail-8.13 *sources*. Your sendmail binaries may be compiled without socketmap support.
1) Use the command below to check if your sendmail binary is compiled with socketmap support
sendmail -d0.1 -bt </dev/null
Check if SOCKETMAP is listed in "Compiled with:" section
2) To compile sendmail with socket map support add the following line in devtools/Site/site.config.m4 :
APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF',`-DSOCKETMAP')dnl
and recompile sendmail sources as describes in INSTALL file.
and what about FEATURE(`mrs')? I couldn't find anything on mrs, is there some other solution?
FEATURE(`mrs') is not a part of sendmail.org distribution. It is described at http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/mrs.html
Its installation requires: 1) patching cf/m4/proto.m4 file used to generate *.cf file from *.mc file 2) adding mrs.m4 file to cf/feature/ directory [It does not require sendmail sources recompilation]
I don't want to wade through the configs if someone else already has so I thought I'd post here first.
