How do we set up sendmail

[bekyed]

Hi,

We use a software called actinic catalog and cannot send out emails because they are perl scripts.

We received the following message from our host

You will need to invoke /usr/sbin/sendmail locally on the web server

How do we set this up please?

Thanks.

Wayne.

how or where do you want to send emails?

I assume you want to add it to some script somewhere. You could look at a mailer script and see how it is done and use that as a guidline for adding the sending capapbility.

Well, I'm not familiar with actinic, but if you can locate the mail CGI, you can modify the code to do the right thing.

There are a number of modules on CPAN that can send mail: [search.cpan.org...]

You might also try just asking the support folks at actinic. :)
