Subject: novice having trouble with mail…I am having an issue with configure the Email Gateway I am using a default install of redhat 7.2 with sendmail. I have followed the instructions very carefully and these are the lines I have added to my /etc/aliases file:
help:| /opt/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action correspond
help-comment: | /opt/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action comment
noc: | /opt/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue network --action correspond
noc-comment: | /opt/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue network --action comment
I then rebuild aliases of course but when i send an email from and external address ie christen_0125@hotmail.com
I receive this back: from the server on my client…

smrsh: rt-mailgate.--queue.general not available for sendmail programs
There’s the error. You need to let smrsh run rt-mailgate. Make a
symlink to rt-mailgate in /etc/smrsh (or wherever that directory is on
your system).
Jesse, could you add
Since the standard sendmail configuration will call rt-mailgate
with smrsh, the sendmail restricted shell, you must tell smrsh
that it is allowed to run it. To do so, make a symlink in
/etc/smrsh to rt-mailgate:
# ln -s /path/to/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate /etc/smrsh/rt-mailgate
to the sendmail section of the docs, following the newaliases command?
(Also, I noticed that qmail Method 2 is still there. I’d encourage you
to remove it; I can’t think of any reason you’d have to add an rt user
just to configure qmail unless you already had a sufficiently complex
virtualhosts setup, in which case the recipe in Method 2 probably
wouldn’t work out of the box anyhow. If you don’t remove it, then the
pipelines MUST call preline like the ones in the example above it.)
