[SPTUsers] Sending mail problem ?

[Lois Bellamy]

If you are running Mac OS X Server 10.2.x, do the following:

1. Open the server settings program and log into your server.

2.  Click on the Internet tab.

3.  Click on the Mail Service icon and select Start Mail Service.

4.  Click on the Mail Service icon and select Configure Host Settings.

5.  Click on the Outgoing Mail tab, and select Allow outgoing mail.

The default is to use SMTP and that is what the above does. I found 
that it worked and that I did not have to use sendmail, which BTW you 
can set up as an alternative if you want. But it requires a bit more 
work, so why do it if the above works.

Hope this helps you with your problem.
