Many email providers will not accept traffic from an IP that's from a residental ISP. Furthermore, many ISPs block outgoing SMTP traffic. So you usually will have many problems trying to directly send email via SMTP from your home PC.
You probably need to install exim4
or other MTA, and configure it to use an external email as a "smarthost." Outgoing email will appear to come from this email address. On Debian this is fairly easy with an apt-get install exim4
and then answer the configuration questions.
If you are running on Debian or Ubuntu, you might have this installed already. Run dpkg-reconfigure exim4
from a root terminal to re-run the setup questions.
After you do that the above command will likely begin to work.
Have you installed
sendmail
? – kobaltz – 2013-10-25T13:07:16.347First check, if sendmail is installed. Than, replace the single quotes(') with double quotes(") – Christian – 2013-10-25T13:10:11.127
It is also possible with telnet, in addition to your method stated: http://www.wikihow.com/Send-Email-Using-Telnet
