====== Simple Email Setup ====== At this time, i choose not to setup a full email server on my home setup, but i still need to provide email notifications for some services. The Gentoo default **mail-mta/nullmailer** package is more than enough. It should be aready installed, otherwise emerge it: emerge mail-mta/nullmailer ===== Configuration ===== I assume you already have a mail domain somewhere linked to your **@mydomain.com**, and you have your own address as **myself@mydomain.com** and you created a specific mailbox called **home@mydomain.com** to manage any email sent from services. All the following files need to be under **/etc/nullmailer**: myself@mydomain.com mydomain.com mail mail mail.mydomain.com smtp port=587 user=home@mydomain.com pass=**** starttls ===== Usage ===== Try it from the command line: (echo "Subject: test email"; echo "Hi! my nullmailer works...") | sendmail -F "Me Myself" -f myself@mydomain.com destination@otherdomain.de
