一、LINUX下的mail \ mailx为什么无法使用外部SMTP发邮件？

from:http://blog.youkuaiyun.com/islandstar/article/details/7868916

有时为了达到某种需求统一使用某一SMTP服务器作为发送邮件报告。

通常的做法都是，关闭本机的sendmail服务，修改/etc/mail.rc，增加一下类似两行，指定外部的smtp服务器地址、帐号密码等。

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# vi /etc/mail.rc
set from=demo@qq.com smtp=smtp.qq.com
set smtp-auth-user=demo smtp-auth-password=demopass smtp-auth=login

# vi /etc/mail.rc
set from=demo@qq.com smtp=smtp.qq.com
set smtp-auth-user=demo smtp-auth-password=demopass smtp-auth=login

然后通过命令来发送邮件

[plain] view plain copy print ?

echo hello word | mail -s "demo title" demo@qq.com

echo  hello word | mail -s "demo title" demo@qq.com

可是发现在RHEL6运行是没有问题，在RHEL5下，mail命令始终是调用本地的sendmail服务来发送邮件的。到底RHEL6和RHEL5下的mail和mailx又有着什么关系呢？

RHEL6下

mail 链接到 mailx 命令，mailx版本为12.4

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# rpm -qa|grep mailx
mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64
# ll /bin/mail*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 5 7月 22 2011 /bin/mail -> mailx
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 390424 2月 16 2010 /bin/mailx
# mail -V
12.4 7/29/08

# rpm -qa|grep mailx
mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64
# ll /bin/mail*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root      5  7月 22 2011 /bin/mail -> mailx
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 390424  2月 16 2010 /bin/mailx
# mail -V
12.4 7/29/08

RHEL5下，则发现了一些不同

mailx 链接到 mail 命令，mailx版本为8.1

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# rpm -qa|grep mailx
mailx-8.1.1-44.2.2
# ll /bin/mail*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root mail 84856 Jun 6 2007 /bin/mail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Apr 12 18:03 /bin/mailx -> mail
# mail -V 此处运行就会出错，没有-V这个参数

# rpm -qa|grep mailx
mailx-8.1.1-44.2.2
# ll /bin/mail*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root mail 84856 Jun  6  2007 /bin/mail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     4 Apr 12 18:03 /bin/mailx -> mail
# mail -V     此处运行就会出错，没有-V这个参数

也就是说，在RHEL6\5下，运行mail 和mailx，实际上都是一个命令，而mail版本不同，导致了RHEL5下mail命令无法调用外部SMTP服务器。

安装mailx新版本可解决此问题。

mailx官方站点 http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/

下载最新版本mailx-12.4.tar.bz2 (271.5 kB) http://sourceforge.net/projects/heirloom/files/latest/download?source=files

解压、安装。下载的压缩包里有安装说明（见INSTALL 文件）。默认安装是make ; make install

同时安装说明也说了，如果make install 出错，则换为 make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install命令试试。

命令：

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# tar jxvf mailx-12.4.tar.bz2
# cd mailx-12.4
# make
# make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install

# tar jxvf mailx-12.4.tar.bz2
# cd mailx-12.4
# make
# make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install

我在make install很长时间没有反应，只有Ctrl + C 中断了，输入make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install 则可以成功安装

查看mailx程序默认安装位置、及版本

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# whereis mailx
mailx: /usr/local/bin/mailx /usr/share/man/man1p/mailx.1p.gz
# mailx -V
12.4 7/29/08

# whereis mailx
mailx: /usr/local/bin/mailx /usr/share/man/man1p/mailx.1p.gz
# mailx -V
12.4 7/29/08

安装后的mailx使用的是 /etc/nail.rc 配置，不是 /etc/mail.rc 这个需要注意下。
用mailx命令测试发送邮件

[plain] view plain copy print ?

# echo hello word | mailx -v -s "demo title" demo@qq.com

# echo hello word | mailx -v -s "demo title" demo@qq.com

成功发送的话，就可以看到类似的提示

[plain] view plain copy print ?

250 2.1.0 Ok

二、Linux5中使用mailx利用SMTP发送邮件

from:http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_4d22b97201019yav.html

Linux5中使用mailx利用SMTP发送邮件

Linux中mail/mailx默认使用sendmail发送邮件,我们可以关闭sendmail让其使用外部SMTP发送mail。

由于Linux 5级以下的版本默认使用sendmail发送mail,关闭sendmail之后将无法发送mail，而Linux 6却可以，他们主要区别是使用mailx的版本不一样.Linux 6使用mailx 版本mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64而Linux 5使用mailx版本mailx-8.1.1-44.2.2 。

故为了让linux 5在关闭sendmail的情况下，使用外部SMTP发送mail，需要在Linux5上安装mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64.

下载mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64

mailx官方站点 http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/

下载最新版本mailx-12.4.tar.bz2 (271.5 kB) http://sourceforge.net/projects/heirloom/files/latest/download?source=files

安装mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64

[root@zabbix opt]# tar -jxvf mailx-12.4.tar.bz2

[root@zabbix opt]# cd mailx-12.4

[root@zabbix opt]# make

[root@zabbix opt]# make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install

配置mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64(以QQ SMTP为例)

[root@zabbix etc]# pwd

/etc

[root@zabbix etc]# cat /etc/nail.rc

# This is the configuration file for Heirloom mailx (formerly

# known under the name "nail".

# See mailx(1) for further options.

# This file is not overwritten when 'make install' is run in

# the mailx build process again.

#set from=zabbix@ips.com smtp=mail.qiye.163.com

#set smtp-auth-user=zabbix smtp-auth-password=zabbix123 smtp-auth=login

set from=1141680682@qq.com smtp=smtp.qq.com

set smtp-auth-user=1141680682 smtp-auth-password=xxxxxx smtp-auth=login

# Ask for a message subject.

set keep

# Do not remove empty private mail folders.

set emptybox

set indentprefix="> "

# Automatically quote the text of the message that is responded to.

set sendcharsets=iso-8859-1,utf-8

# Display sender's real names in header summaries.

set showname

# Display the recipients of messages sent by the user himself in

# header summaries.

set showto

# Automatically check for new messages at each prompt, but avoid polling

# of IMAP servers or maildir folders.

set newmail=nopoll

# If threaded mode is activated, automatically collapse thread.

set autocollapse

# Hide some header fields which are uninteresting for most human readers.

ignore received in-reply-to message-id references

# Only include selected header fields when forwarding messages.

fwdretain subject date from to

[root@zabbix etc]#

测试mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64

[root@zabbix etc]# echo hello world |mailx -s "test10" kylixxu@ips.com

[root@zabbix etc]# could not connect: Connection refused

"/root/dead.letter" 11/296

. . . message not sent.

出现以上Error，由于发送邮件是我的QQ邮箱，在外的QQ邮箱发现如下一份mail：

尊敬的QQ邮箱用户：

我们发现您尝试设置SMTP服务，但设置未成功。您可以检查以下的细节来解决：

1. 您是否在邮箱中开启了这项服务，如果尚未开启，请您在【邮箱设置】的【帐号】中开启相关服务。

2. 您是否设置了邮箱独立密码，如果您设置了独立密码，在客户端设置时，密码输入项需填写邮箱独立密码。

其他可能对您有用的帮助信息：

于是，查看QQ邮箱的SMTP设置，果然SMTP服务没有开启，开启后继续测试：

[root@zabbix etc]# echo hello word | mailx -v -s "demo title" kylixxu@ips.com

看起来发送成功了，但是此时QQ邮箱又收到如下mail：

尊敬的用户，您好！

很遗憾，您的邮件“demo title[c]hello word”未能成功发出。

原因是 您的邮件包含不合适的内容，请修改重试。

温馨提醒：未发送成功的邮件会保存在“草稿箱”中，建议登录网页邮箱尝试发送。

邮件的意思是邮件的内容包含不合适的内容，于是更换邮件内容：

[root@zabbix etc]# mailx -s "test" kylixxu@ips.com </etc/mail.rc

[root@zabbix etc]# mailx -s "test2" kylixxu@ips.com.cn < /etc/mail.rc

终于，在我的kylixxu@ips.com/kylixxu@ips.com.cn收到以上发送信息。

至此，整个配置结束。

三、本人测试过程：

1.upgrade mailx:

下载mailx-12.4-6.el6.x86_64

mailx官方站点 http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/

下载最新版本mailx-12.4.tar.bz2 (271.5 kB) http://sourceforge.net/projects/heirloom/files/latest/download?source=files

# tar jxvf mailx-12.4.tar.bz2
# cd mailx-12.4
# make
# make install UCBINSTALL=/usr/bin/install

2./etc/resolv.conf文件增加name server：

[root@oralin5 etc]# cat /etc/resolv.conf
#search localdomain
nameserver 8.8.8.8

3.配置/etc/nail.rc文件：

[root@oralin5 etc]# cat /etc/nail.rc

# This is the configuration file for Heirloom mailx (formerly
# known under the name "nail".
# See mailx(1) for further options.
# This file is not overwritten when 'make install' is run in
# the mailx build process again.

# Sccsid @(#)nail.rc 2.10 (gritter) 3/4/06

# Do not forward to mbox by default since this is likely to be
# irritating for most users today.
set from=testmail@163.com smtp=smtp.163.com
set smtp-auth-user=testmail smtp-auth-password=testmail123 smtp-auth=login

set hold

# Append rather than prepend when writing to mbox automatically.
# This has no effect unless 'hold' is unset again.
set append

# Ask for a message subject.
set ask

# Assume a CRT-like terminal and invoke a pager.
set crt

# Messages may be terminated by a dot.
set dot

# Do not remove empty mail folders in the spool directory.
# This may be relevant for privacy since other users could
# otherwise create them with different permissions.
set keep

# Do not remove empty private mail folders.
set emptybox

# Quote the original message in replies by "> " as usual on the Internet.
set indentprefix="> "

# Automatically quote the text of the message that is responded to.
set quote

# Outgoing messages are sent in ISO-8859-1 if all their characters are
# representable in it, otherwise in UTF-8.
set sendcharsets=iso-8859-1,utf-8

# Display sender's real names in header summaries.
set showname

# Display the recipients of messages sent by the user himself in
# header summaries.
set showto

# Automatically check for new messages at each prompt, but avoid polling
# of IMAP servers or maildir folders.
set newmail=nopoll

# If threaded mode is activated, automatically collapse thread.
set autocollapse

# Hide some header fields which are uninteresting for most human readers.
ignore received in-reply-to message-id references
ignore mime-version content-transfer-encoding

# Only include selected header fields when forwarding messages.
fwdretain subject date from to

[root@oralin5 etc]#

只需要增加如下两行红色配置即可：

set from=testmail@163.com smtp=smtp.163.com
set smtp-auth-user=testmail smtp-auth-password=testmail123 smtp-auth=login

4.测试mailx发送邮件情况：

echo hello world|mailx -s 'test' testmailx@sohu.com

5.成功接收邮件！
