Hi,
I'm trying to design a notification system for a home user. I have a linux host running sendmail that is configured to send messages up to an email account on gmail. That works fine.
The problem is that there is another host on the same internal 192-network that needs to send emails out, but it by design cannot have an email program on it.
What I want to do is reconfigure the sendmail on the linux host to accept (and auto-forward) all messages from other hosts within the 192-private-subnet and push them up to gmail for distribution as necessary to the intended recipients.
Is there a specific sendmail config option that I need to enable this? Is this considered a smart-host (excuse my ignorace, there is one other post here on smarthosts and I'm trying to learn!!) ...
The home network has Time Warner cablemodem, so hosting or whatnot on SMTP Port 25 is simply not an option. I'm using gmail.com as the destination, and it works fine for that single linux host, just not any other hosts on that same network.
Any help is much appreciated in advance. What a great website!!
