Mail server issues

Added by Nikola Z. Guscic about 10 years ago

I have set-up email function in AMC on several occasions previously using msmtp and it always worked fine with my gmail account.

Now I am using Ubuntu 14.04 derivative. I got msmtp to work and verified it by sending a few emails from command line. However, I can't seem to get it to play nice with AMC. I get messages that sendmail can't be found in /usr/sbin/sendmail when I try to send annotated scans from AMC.

I know in the past I had some problems with ubuntu not allowing sendmail to run. I am wondering if anyone has email function working on ubuntu 14.04 or a derivative and how did you go about setting it up?

Running msmtp --version showed that msmtp got installed to /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin. Hence all symmlinks to sendmail didn't work. After deleting incorrect symlinks and linking everything to proper location /usr/local/bin/msmtp sendmail now works properly from the command line. I still can't seem to be able to get it to work with AMC but that may be due to super slow internet connection tonight.

On a fast connection there is no problem.
