FYI: vacation message returns error from sendmail
Hello.
Our user created and activated a vacation message, but an error message is returned upon sending this user an email: Code:
The original message was received at Sun, 3 Jul 2011 19:05:18 +0200 from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|/usr/local/ispmgr/sbin/vacation -f /home/user/email/domain/atle/.vacation.db -m /home/user/email/domain/atle/.vacation.msg -a fname.lname name" (reason: Service unavailable) (expanded from: <user@domain>) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- smrsh: "vacation" not available for sendmail programs (stat failed) 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable Code:
Jul 3 19:05:18 mx01 smrsh: uid 8: attempt to use "vacation -f /path/to/.vacation.db -m /path/to/.vacation.msg -a fname.lname user" (stat failed) Jul 3 19:05:18 mx01 sendmail[24688]: p63H5DwE024685: to="|/usr/local/ispmgr/sbin/vacation -f /path/to/.vacation.db -m /path/to/.vacation.msg -a fname.lname user", ctladdr=<user@domain> (8/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=61153, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable MTA: sendmail-8.13.8-8.el5 I fixed it by creating a symlink in the /etc/smrsh directory to the vacation binary. If there is a more appropriate solution to this problem, i would be glad to hear about it. |
