Default Data for Sendmail

Andrew_Pa

Regular Pleskian
Can somebody write the default data has the sendmail file (/usr/sbin/sendmail)

Because mine is empty and I don't know, if I did something or not...

I am using postfix.


Thank you very much!
 
# ll /usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Feb 5 01:10 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /etc/alternatives/mta

It is symlink. In case of Qmail MTA:

# ll /etc/alternatives/mta
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Feb 5 01:10 /etc/alternatives/mta -> /var/qmail/bin/sendmail
 
So I am input this line and I am OK?
# ll /usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Feb 5 01:10 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> /etc/alternatives/mta


Thank you Igor!

What do you mean "insert it too"? Insert to what?
For Postfix symlink should be:

# ll /etc/alternatives/mta
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Nov 28 08:46 /etc/alternatives/mta -> /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
 
Thank you Igor and sorry for the questions. I edited before my message, so the confuse.

Tell me if I understand correct.

Inside the /usr/sbin/sendmail , I will input this
# ll /etc/alternatives/mta
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Nov 28 08:46 /etc/alternatives/mta -> /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix

Sorry again and thank you for your help!

No, you should not put anything inside /usr/sbin/sendmail. I do not understand for what you need to do it? Once again, in Plesk, file /usr/sbin/sendmail is just symbolic link to other file. It is base knowledge of Unix. Contact Support Team if you are not familiar with Linux or ask help of any Linux administrator.
 
Thank you very much Igor.

It's clear now. Everything is fine. The symbolic links are correct.

Thank you very much for your time and sorry for asking so many questions!
