[rt-users] RT (request racker) mail sending configuration

[Bruno Guimarães Sousa]

I created an account in my mail server just for that.
I am imagining something like this:
1) RT wants to send a message to a recipient, then it requests localhost for
that
2) Localhost is configured with exim4 and for every smtp request it
authenticates in the mail server with an specific account
3) The mail server sends the message.

Both are running Debian.
Mail server has postfix installed.
