Problem w/ mailgate in rt2

I’ve been using rt1 for quite a while now with no problem, but I’m a
little confused by the way that I set up aliases to port to mailgate in
rt2. I have rt2 running on a different machine than my mailserver and I’m
just aliasing each of my rt1 queues to queue_name@rt.domain.com and it
works great, but rt2 doesn’t seem to work the same in that regard. From
the looks of the read me, it sounds like all of aliases on my mailserver
should point to rt@rt.domain.com with these lines in /etc/aliases:

rt-comment: “|/path/to/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action comment”
rt: “|/path/to/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action correspond”

Assuming I’m right up to that point, what seems to lose me the concept of
my “inital queue” which should be there in place of general.

Right now I have newqueue@domain.com aliased to newqueue@rt.domain.com in
/etc/aliases on my rt machine I have:

rt: “|/usr/local/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue newqueue --action correspond”

I’ve also created a queue called newqueue, and uner global group rights,
given Everyone the right to create tickets. When I send an email to
newqueue@domain.com, I get this returned to me:Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2001 13:39:24 -0400

I’m sure its something stupid, but I’ve read through the FAQs and docs
numerous times and I just can’t seem to find what I’m doing wrong. Any
input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Um, that’s an RT 1.0 error message, not a 2.0 error. I suspect that your
sendmail aliasing isn’t “working great” :confused:

I think you may kick yourself with this one…
try running ‘newaliases’ - it looks like it’s still running the old rt mailgate.

I succesfully installed RT version 2.0.4 and I can use the WebUI,
however I cannot send e-mail to it.

First I got the following error:

smrsh: uid 8: attempt to use rt-mailgate --queue general --action
correspond
sendmail: to=“|/var/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
correspond”, ctladdr=rt@helpdesk.a-aarhus.dk (8/0), delay=00:00:00,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=30055, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service
unavailable
sendmail: DSN: Service unavailable

After looking through the rt-users mails, I added the following link:

ln -sf /var/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate /etc/smrsh/

Now I get the following error:

sendmail: to=“|/var/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
correspond”, ctladdr=rt@helpdesk.a-aarhus.dk (8/0), delay=00:00:00,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=30054, dsn=5.3.0, stat=unknown mailer
error 2
sendmail[1282]: f736MS201281: f736MS201282: DSN: unknown mailer error 2

Any ideas?

Sendmail works fine when sending to username@helpdesk.a-aarhus.dk
