Hi Folx,
I was asking for a utility to interface to a user like sendmail, but be
very stripped down and only forward mail to another host for "real sendmail
processing". A lot of people have been suggesting smap/smapd. We use smap.
It's a beautiful tool. However it doesn't (that I know of) do what I want. To
draw a picture...
+---------------+ +--------------+
| UNIX box | | UNIX box |
| | | runs real |
| +----------+ | sendmail |
| | chrooted | | |
| | area to | | |
| | run web | | |
| | servers | | |
+----+----------+ +--------------+
| |
| ethernet |
-------------------------------------------
|
|
| Internet
The chrooted area of the first UNIX box would have a utility which takes common
sendmail command line args (i.e. using -t versus the recipient on the cmd line,
etc.), a mail message and simply forwards it to the second box for proper MX
lookup, delivery, etc. on the Internet.
