There is an dbmailer.m4.

htt
p://www.helgrim.com/dbmaildocs/files/dbmail.m4

You can put this in your /usr/share/sendmail/cf/mailer

and include in sendmail.mc :

MAILER('dbmail')

In mailertable you can add something like:

mydomain	dbmail:mydomain

Or remove the MAILER('local') completely.

Secondly you can use the dbmailer-lsmtp
which is acts as a "local" smtp server to which
you can forward the
mail.

Kind regards,

Hi Marc,

I did all you mentioed before that and i can add users to
dbmail but the 
problem is:

1. how i can setup the MUA like outlook or MS outlook?
because outlook ask for password before access the dbmail
server.

2. can i send mail to user in dbmail using linux command
MAIL from the 
dbmail server itself if yes please tell me how.
regards.
Khalid

In Outlook or Outlook express you need to setup a new mail
account, and
point it to the server running dbmail. Here you select the
protcol you
want to use, pop3 or imap.

You use the username and password you setup in the dbmail
with
dbmail-users. 

That should be all to it

I run sendmail from the commandline like I normally do.
dbmail-smtp
should also work, however you can only send emails to the
user which are
in your dbmail system.

echo "message" |dbmail-smtp -u user -m mailbox

Kind regards,

Marc
