Id like to configure my server the ability to send thru SMTP (not recieve) emails thru my external SMTP server on CentOS for wordpress and general logging.
How can I do this?
Hi @riahc4
May I recommend that you don’t use Sendmail, but use something like Postfix, which has a much better security track record? It’s a drop-in-replacement for Sendmail.
I’m not sure if CentOS comes with the wizard, like Ubuntu does, but run the installation:
sudo yum install postfix
Then have a look at the Ubuntu tutorial, but ignore the two first sudo apt … commands and skip Step 3:
