How to send email through gmail using Sendmail

  • Install sendmail and configure it to use Gmail as SMTP output mail server
  • Setup provider
apt-get -y install sendmail sendmail-bin sendmail-cf bind9
sed -i -e /SMART_HOST/s/mail/smtp/ /etc/mail/peers/provider
sed -i -e s/mindspring/bashlinux/g /etc/mail/peers/provider

Troubleshooting

ERROR
socket bind() to port 25 for address 127.0.0.1 failed: Address already in use
FIX
Bind to only one IP address by setting on /etc/eximf.conf.template
local_interfaces = 
only 1 address
