Hello Ralf and Maillist,
I did manage to install Horde without the "-a" switch and it worked well.
Then I manually installed the desired applications and modules. Almost
everything is working well, except for Imp. I can receive emails without
issues, but I cannot send any. When I press the Send button, I see a red
popup saying:
There was an error sending your message: sendmail system error (71)
Sendmail is installed and configured to use my GMail account to send emails
using their SMTP server. It works perfectly. I can send emails from the
CLI using something like :
echo "$(hostname) test" | mail -s "$(hostname) test Gmail relay"
root at localhost
Strangely, /var/log/maillog is empty...
I noticed that backends.local.php did not contain any parameters for SMTP
authentication, so I added the SMTP block in it, Now
"imp/config/backends.local.php" looks like:
$servers['imap'] = array(
'disabled' => false,
'name' => 'GMail IMAP server',
'hostspec' => 'imap.gmail.com',
'hordeauth' => true,
'protocol' => 'imap',
'port' => 993,
'secure' => 'ssl'
'maildomain' => '',
'smtp' => array(
'auth' => true,
'localhost' => 'localhost',
'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
'password' => '*************************',
'port' => 587,
'secure' => 'tls',
'username' => 'lp.allard.1 at gmail.com'
),
'cache' => false,
);
Please note that I also use IMP as the auth backend for Horde and use
GMail's account to do so.
Do you, or anybody else in the maillist, have an idea of what I missed?
Have a good day!
