Question
Unable to get SendMail to work.
I set up my mx record to be "mail" with priority one. I am able to successfully ping mail@my-domain.com
I've followed this documentation: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/sendmail
I then:
$ sendmail -vt < test-message.txt
The output looks like this (please note that I changed some of the stuff to hide my droplet name, domain name, and username. I've cap-locked those parts to make it obvious.
