Fast Mail Fast Smarthost - fast dirty mail hack

[skurudo]

In times you need send mail from your server, but you can't configure it or your hosting provider just closed port for you/or your IP deeply in spamlist (and you're not guilty). You can try to use external and valid smtp to send your mail. Just a little copypaste and service restart. Main idea - use external and valid smtp servers.

Disclaimer: as is, if you understand

Depending on your OS:
CentOS - /etc/exim/exim.conf
or
Debian - /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template

Search section - AUTHENTICATION CONFIGURATION - add code for your external mail (yandex or google):

Yandex

Code: Select all

yandex_login:
  driver = plaintext
  public_name = LOGIN
  hide client_send = : [email protected] : password

or

or

  driver = smtp
  port = 587
