Worked great! Thanks again!

Assuming you don't need authenticated SMTP, it is probably easiest to just tell postfix, the mail server on the JumpBox, to relay to the SMTP server of your chosing. You can do this after you register and enable shell access, then login as admin and:

# edit the postfix config file as root

sudo vi /etc/postfix/main.cf

# change the line that says "relayhost = " to say

# "relayhost = smtp.yourcompany.com "

# then reload the postfix config

sudo postfix reload

Good luck,

Since each application handles this differently this is something we have had a hard time deciding how to handle gracefully. For mediawiki in particular, there is both an application level and system level solution. Let me test and see which one is easiest and get back to you.

If you are in a big hurry you can check out this MediaWiki configuration tip:

You will have to install the Pear Mail functionality probably.

I will replay later today with explicit instructions though.

Thanks and Good Luck,
Austin

Where do I set the outgoing SMTP server?

php.ini? LocalSettings.php? Some system level setting?
