Hello,
I have recently migrated a MW install from Windows to Linux, and I'm
having some trouble getting system-generated emails to work. First some
versions:
Ubuntu Linux 7.04 (I have root access)
MediaWiki 1.11.0
Apache 2.2.3
PHP 5.2.1
Sendmail 8.13.8
MySQL 5.0.38
Everything else is working... file uploads, ImageMagick, texvc, short
URLs, ParserFunctions, CharInsert, maintenance scripts, all working
fine.
When I try to generate a system email by clicking "Email password", for
example, the page responds successfully, saying the email was sent.
However, the message is never received, and I found the following error
message in /var/log/mail.log:
Sep 17 11:11:52 justin-ubuntu sendmail[11580]: l8HFBqnM011580:

MW appears to be generating the email and sending it off to Sendmail,
but Sendmail is not processing it correctly. From the console, I tried
sending an email manually via the SMTP interface:
$ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.

The /var/log/mail.log file shows the email being sent successfully, and
I receive the message in my inbox moments later. The relevant mail.log
records are below:

What is happening differently with the mail triggered from MW? I am
admittedly new to Sendmail, and the configuration files look very
daunting.
Any help?
Thanks,
