Setup historical interface
-------
OpenSMTPD provides a single utility
`smtpctl`
to control the daemon and
the local submission subsystem.
To accomodate systems that require historical interfaces such as
`sendmail`
,
`newaliases`
or
`makemap`
, the
`smtpctl`
utility can operate in compatibility
mode if called with the historical name.
On mailwrapper-enabled systems, this is achieved by editing /etc/mailer.conf
and adding the following lines:
sendmail /usr/sbin/smtpctl
send-mail /usr/sbin/smtpctl
mailq /usr/sbin/smtpctl
makemap /usr/sbin/smtpctl
newaliases /usr/sbin/smtpctl
Whereas on systems that don't provide mailwrapper, it can be achieved by
setting the appropriate symbolic links:
ln -s /usr/sbin/smtpctl sendmail
ln -s /usr/sbin/smtpctl send-mail
ln -s /usr/sbin/smtpctl mailq
ln -s /usr/sbin/smtpctl makemap
ln -s /usr/sbin/smtpctl newaliases
The OpenSMTPD project leaves it up to the package maintainers to setup the
links in their packages as it is very hard for us to accomodate all systems
with the prefered method in a clean way.
Configure /etc/smtpd.conf
