Hello!

I found this useful scruipt while googling for ssmtp.conf sample files. The script works fine and comes handy IMHO :)

Hope it comes handy for you too ;)

Here is the code:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
################################################################################
#
# File:         setup_ssmtp
# Description:  This script sets up ssmtp mail configuration
# Author:       Andrew@DeFaria.com
# Created:      Wed Jan  9 12:57:13  2002
# Language:     Bash Shell
# Modifications:<modifications>

#
################################################################################
# Setup /etc/ssmtp config directory
ssmtp_dir=/etc/ssmtp
domain=<your domain>
mail_server=<your mail server>

mkdir -p $ssmtp_dir
chmod 700 $ssmtp_dir

# Make some simple aliases. Alias $USER to the proper email address and then
# alias root, Administrator and postmaster to the user's address thus making
# the user "god" of smtp on this machine only.
cat > $ssmtp_dir/revaliases <<EOF
# sSMTP aliases
#
# Format:       local_account:outgoing_address:mailhub
#
# Example: root:your_login@your.domain:mailhub.your.domain:[port]
# where [port] is an optional port number that defaults to 25.
$USER:$USER@$domain:$mail_server:25
root:$USER@$domain:$mail_server:25
Administrator:$USER@$domain:$mail_server:25
postmaster:$USER@$domain:$mail_server:25
EOF

# Get a downshifted hostname
hostname=$(hostname | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')

# Make ssmtp.conf
cat > $ssmtp_dir/ssmtp.conf <<EOF
# ssmtp.conf: Config file for Cygwin's sstmp sendmail
#
# The person who gets all mail for userids < 10
root=postmaster
# The place where the mail goes. The actual machine name is required
# no MX records are consulted. Commonly mailhosts are named mail.domain.com
# The example will fit if you are in domain.com and you mailhub is so named.
mailhub=$mail_server
# Where will the mail seem to come from?
#rewriteDomain=$USER.$domain
# The full hostname
hostname=$hostname.$domain
# Set this to never rewrite the "From:" line (unless not given) and to
# use that address in the "from line" of the envelope.
#FromLineOverride=YES
EOF
