[asterisk-users] Bug in voicemail's serveremail setting in 1.4.18

[OCG Technical Support]

Getting closer....this seems to be a sendmail issue not asterisk.

 

It seems that if sendmail is run with -f (from) using any account other than
root, the from domain is NOT trusted, and so sendmail does ns lookup - which
of course resolves back to our firewall.

 

So it seems that I need to tell sendmail to trust the asterisk account or
voicemail from address....

For more info, I grab the relevant portion of the maillog.  It looks like
asterisk is trying to send using the right from email, but it's getting
changed.  This would suggest a sendmail problem, EXCEPT, it works fine when
I send mail from the command line.  Can anyone offer ideas?

Since upgrading from asterisk 1.2.x to 1.4.18 I've noticed a change (bug) in
the voicemail messaging emailing operation.  I had set serveremail option
to:

 

voicemail at pbx.mydomain.com

 

and under ast 1.2.x messages arrived at user mailboxes from
voicemail at pbx.mydomain.com .  However, since upgrading emails arrive from
voicemail at firewall.mydomain.com  (the path from asterisk box to our corp
mail server runs through firewall.mydomain.com).  Before someone jumps to
the obvious conclusion, I tried sending mail using "sendmail
me at mydomain.com" from the asterisk box, and the return address is correct!!
So, Asterisk is somehow messing up the return address.

 

It appears that as of asterisk 1.4.x, voicemail is incorrectly setting the
return address - just how/why I don't know.  The FROM name is properly set,
and the from email is partially set right (voicemail@) but the remainder of
the "serveremail" is wrong.

 

Is there something else I need to change?  Can someone explain this?

 

Thanks,

MD
