Hi Robin,<br><br>Thanks for the response. <br><br>You mean to say install postfix and route mails from localhost to postfix? <br>In that case what would be KohaAdminEmailAddress?<br><br>Regards,<br>Somasekhar Rao K<br><br>

<div class="im">> 3. In Sendmail.pm, I have configured it as follows. 'smtp' =><br>

</div>I really think this is a terrible way to do this.<br>
<br>
Three concrete reasons, excluding the fact that it just feels wrong:<br>
<br>
* it will delay the queue process while it talks to the remote server to<br>
send messages. Depending on exactly how it works, this may cause<br>
duplicate messages, or just a piling up of delayed processes if there<br>
are network issues causing slowdown.<br>
* koha may not have proper failure handling, causing messages to get<br>
lost if there's a network glitch.<br>
* if you ever upgrade libmail-sendmail-perl, or whatever it is on your<br>
system, you'll have to redo this change.<br>
<br>
The way I'd suggest instead is leave it default so that it sends via<br>
localhost, and have your local mail server (postfix or exim typically)<br>
forward it on where it needs to go. Mail servers are built with very<br>
smart error handling, queuing and so forth, also they allow you to have<br>
more complex rules about what goes where, should you want that.<br>
