Hello,
Hi,
when I set new sending account in KMail, I can choose between (local) SMTP server and Sendmail. In some sites I have problems with SMTP
If I understand correctly, you use a laptop computer in different networks.
(silly firewall and not very well configured mail servers...), so I would like to set sending of e-mails from my laptop's KMail using some MTA. I did not do any extra settings for Sendmail. When I set sending using Sendmail in KMail, the mail is sent without any error but usually not delivered... Any idea how to get it to work?
As I understand sendmail just takes away from the MUA the direct dealing with the SMTP protokol. sendmail itself uses the SMTP protokol. If SMTP is blocked within the site you are in sendmail same as your MUA is not able to connect to the mail server you send mails to. Sometimes the SMTP server of your provider accept mails on a port (587) different from the standard SMTP port 25. Try to configure your MUA or sendmail to use that port.
