Configuring Sendmail for multiple domains
by mfoley from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5RVYW)
I have been hosting multiple domains for httpd on one server for several years. I now want to add email for several domains. I am using Sendmail. Web articles I've read have given me config information, e.g.:
/etc/mail/local-host-names
Code:domain1.org
domain2.org/etc/mail/virtusertable
Code:sales@domain1.org sales\\@domain1.org
sales@domain2.org sales\\@domain2.org/etc/mail/genericstable
Code:sales\\@domain1.org sales@domain1.org
sales\\@domain2.org sales@domain2.orgOne of the sites even shows an image of setting up an Outlook client with the user name sales@domain1.org, complete with password: http://www.ait.com/wp-content/upload...ft_outlook.png.
What is missing from all these how-to sites is how it authenticates the user and PW. Where are the "sales@domain1.org" user name and password stored? Not in /etc/passwd, right?
