OpenEMM Technical Support Forum

1&1 server preconfigured with plesk 8, Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz) and qmail. sendmail seems to be installed, there is a /user/sbin/sendmail.

"yum search sendmail" brings back:
sendmail.i386 8.13.7-2.fc4.2 installed

however, when I do :

$ OpenEMM.sh start

I get:

Any Ideas?

As there is qmail installed, sendmail may be a simple wrapper to qmail which does not understand all sendmail options. Qmail is not supported at the moment.

@hobbss:

I also do have a VPS with Plesk 8 and qmail on it.

Unfortunatly I can't send e-mails with OpenEMM.
There is no Failue Noice in OpenEMM.

The Mails are shown as sent out in OpenEMM, but they don't leave the server.

I do have the same notices when I start OpenEMM.

Did you solve the problem?
First it's only important to me, to start the Mailing.

Hello All,
