RedhatLinux系统下如何配置sendmail邮件服务器

前期工作:

在DNS管理中加入:

MX:mail.lapkeung.com(优先级 10)

mail.lapkeung.com

一.sendmail服务器的安装:

1.首先查看sendmail是否安装完毕

[root@localhost mail]#rpm -q sendmail

sendmail-8.13.1-2

如果发现没有安装的话,在添加删除软件包里,把邮件这个选上,然后安装

2.安装redhat linuxAS 4 后,修改 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc.

文件中，红色字体的行为需要修改的地方，共有五行需要修改。
第一行是手动添加的，与认证无关，作用是启动多个邮件队列，为了获得更好的传输性能。
第二行和第三行是去掉行首的注释。”TRUST_AUTH_MECH”的作用是使sendmail不管access文件中如何设置，都能 relay 那些通过EXTERNAL, LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5或DIGEST-MD5等方式验证的邮件，”confAUTH_MECHANISMS" 的作用是确定系统的认证方式。Outlook Express支持的认证方式是LOGIN。
第四行是加上注释，以便让sendmail可以侦听所有网络设备，为整个网络提供服务，而不仅仅只对本机提供服务。
第五行是修改的，原来内容是:
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=submission, Name=MSA, M=Ea')dnl
去掉行首的注释符，并且将内容修改成Port=25:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=25, Name=MSA')dnl
在smtp的默认端口（25）上进行认证，而不是587端口。这样就强制所有使用该邮件服务器进行邮件转发的用户在认证后才能发邮件了。

2.运行：
# m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc >/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
用m4重新生成sendmail.cf文件

修改local-host-names文件，加入mail.lapkeung.com

修改access文件，加入：

mail.lapkeung.com                  RELAY
lapkeung.com                       RELAY

生成库文件
# makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db

3.   既然我们打开了多个队列，现在我们在/var/spool/mqueue/下创建任意多个队列目录，运行：
# cd /var/spool/mqueue
# mkdir q1 q2 q3 q4 q5 q6

4.        修改/etc/mail/local-host-names，将希望该邮件服务器使用的邮箱名加进去，比如邮箱为：xxx@abc.com.cn则将abc.com.cn加入到该文件中。
5.        重新启动sendmail服务，运行：
# killall ?HUP sendmail

# service sendmail restart
6.        可以通过telnet 本机IP 25来验证sendmail服务是否已经正常启动，若登陆成功，则说明sendmail服务已经成功启动。
# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'

在AUTH后面有LOGIN就基本上可以在OutlookExpress上认证了。

二.         Pop3服务配置：（pop3是在AS4上的新改动！   ^!^）

为了安装POP3服务器，您需要安装dovecot包。以下面的RPM查询命令查看dovecot是否已安装在系统中：
#rpm -q dovecot
没安装的话,这个RPM包在第4张光盘上.
1.  # service dovecot start

启动 Dovecot Imap： [ 确定 ]

2. 修改/etc/dovecot.conf文件：

#protocols = imap imap3
更改为：
protocols = imap imap3 pop3 pop3s

缺省的ports:
imap: 143
imaps: 993
pop3: 110
pop3s: 995
保存后退出,

然后重启 dovecot

#sbin/service dovecot restart

测试

[root@localhost mail]#telnet 127.0.0.1 110

trying 127.0.0.1....

connected to localhost.localdomain(127.0.0.1)

Escape character is `^`]`

+ok dovecot ready

出现上面的提示就表明pop3正常在运行了
