[horde] Horde/IMP/Apache and Send Mail

[Norris Ward]

Just be sure that I did change the correct lines, in the
/horde/config/horde.php would these bee the correct lines to change and
uncomment?

$conf['mailer']['type'] = 'sendmail';  <-- This would be changed to smtp

// An array holding any parameters that the Mail object will need to
// function correctly. For sendmail, this is mainly the sendmail_path
// option; SMTP requires at least a server and a port (if nonstandard).
// SMTP authentication can be enabled by setting the 'auth' parameter
// to true.
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array();
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array('sendmail_path' => '/usr/lib/sendmail');
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array('host' => 'localhost'); <-- I changed this
to localhost rather than an FQDN

I notice it is asking for the "auth parameter"  I don't see one yet but I
will keep searching(any hints on this one?

Thanks always to the patience and hints I have received from this list!

One easy way, which is probably possible and won't cause too much of a
problem
(maybe a bit slower performance) is to switch to SMTP sending rather than
using the local sendmail command.  Then it should block it as you desire.
Not sure if the user will get back the full custom error text or not, you'll
have to try it and see.
