Really a sendmail question

1999-02-26 08:29:17
I'm using Procmail somewhere in this loop, but my real question is about
sendmail setup.

I've got a cgi script where people put in their email address, and the
script sends them email.  I set an Errors-To: and From: header to point to
where a Procmail script is waiting to process and redirect any bounced
mail.  Works fine on one system, not on the target system, though.

The problem is that the local machine doesn't return any bounced messages
(if someone enters a bad domain name, for example).  Bounces from remote
systems work find.

I'm invoking  /usr/lib/sendmail -t -oi -oem  to return errors by mail.

Any other switches I can give sendmail to get bounced messages mailed to
me?  Or  what would the sysadmin need to do to get this working?  (I'm
assuming that the web user 'nobody' doesn't have a mail drop, perhaps.)

Once I get that working I can come back with problems with my Procmail
script...

Apologies for being off topic,
