centos 5.4系统下配置sendmail服务器

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -q sendmail

package sendmail is not installed
[root@localhost ~]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[root@localhost ~]# cd /mnt/CentOS
[root@localhost CentOS]# ls -l sendmail*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 500 500 646709 2007-11-19 sendmail-8.13.8-2.el5.i386.rpm             #sendmail服务器程序
-rw-rw-r-- 1 500 500 318671 2007-11-19 sendmail-cf-8.13.8-2.el5.i386.rpm          #与sendmail服务器相关的一系列配置文件和程序
-rw-rw-r-- 1 500 500 131633 2007-11-19 sendmail-devel-8.13.8-2.el5.i386.rpm      #sendmail的开发库
-rw-rw-r-- 1 500 500 668959 2007-11-19 sendmail-doc-8.13.8-2.el5.i386.rpm         #sendmail服务器的文档

安装Dovecot 软件包(POP3 和IMAP)
到这里sendmail 服务器基本配置完成后,Mail Server 就可以完成邮件发送工作,如果需要使用
POP3 和IMAP 协议接收邮件还需要安装dovecot 软件包。在rhel5 里dovecot 整合了IMAP。
安装dovecot 软件包要解决其依赖性,安装perl-DBI-1.52-2.el5.i386.rpm、mysql-5.0.77-3.el5.i386.rpm和
dovecot-1.0.7-7.el5.i386.rpm

启动Sendmail 服务
service sendmail restart 和service dovecot restart 命令启动sendmail 和dovecot 服务,
[root@localhost CentOS]# service sendmail restart
测试端口
使用netstat 命令测试是否开启SMTP 的25 端口、POP3 的110 端口及IMAP 的143 端口。
[root@localhost CentOS]# netstat -ntla
Active Internet connections (servers and established)

验证Sendmail 的SMTP 认证功能
telnet localhost 25 后输入ehlo localhost 验证Sendmail 的SMTP 认证功能

 [root@localhost CentOS]# telnet localhost 25

在WINDOWS系统下telnet 10.10.10.160 25

telnet 10.10.10.160 110

建立sendmail服务器用户:
 [root@localhost CentOS]# useradd sdbaby
[root@localhost CentOS]# passwd sdbaby
Changing password for user sdbaby.
New UNIX password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
[root@localhost CentOS]# useradd sendmail
[root@localhost CentOS]# passwd sendmail
Changing password for user sendmail.
New UNIX password:
