The mail/mini_sendmail port
mini_sendmail-1.3.9 – accept email on behalf of real sendmail (cvsweb github mirror)
Description
mini_sendmail reads its standard input up to an end-of-file and sends a copy of the message found there to all of the addresses listed. The message is sent by connecting to a local SMTP server. This means mini_sendmail can be used to send email from inside a chroot(2) area.WWW: http://www.acme.com/software/mini_sendmail/
Readme
+----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Running ${PKGSTEM} on OpenBSD +----------------------------------------------------------------------- First things first, we need to install the chroot subpackage of mini_sendmail if you have not done so already. This will put a statically linked mini_sendmail binary into a location reachable by Apache when it is under chroot(2), /var/www/bin/mini_sendmail to be precise. Next, we need to tell PHP about our fake sendmail binary. The php.ini examples leave the sendmail_path directive commented out. We need to change it to point to mini_sendmail: ;sendmail_path = sendmail_path = "/bin/mini_sendmail -t -i" PHP executes mini_sendmail by using the popen(3) function. Unfortunately, this means we are required to copy /bin/sh into the Apache chroot area: # cp -p /bin/sh /var/www/bin/sh If everything has been performed correctly, after a stop and restart of Apache (if it is running), we should now be able to utilize the PHP mail() function.
