Having Sendmail coexist with Lyris List Manager
In order for Lyris List Manager to function correctly, it needs to be able to receive email.
Lyris List Manager runs its own SMTP daemon for accepting email. Since you are probably running "Sendmail" (or some other mail server), you will need to decide which method you want to use so that
Lyris List Manager and sendmail can both receive email.
1) USE TWO TCP/IP ADDRESSES: assign two TCP/IP addresses to this machine. Tell Sendmail to run on one TCP/IP address, and Lyris List Manager runs on the other.
2) SENDMAIL FORWARDS TO LYRIS LIST MANAGER: create an alias and tell Sendmail to forward email addressed to the alias to Lyris List Manager that runs on another port.
3) LYRIS LIST MANAGER FORWARDS TO SENDMAIL: move Sendmail to another port and inform Lyris List Manager to forward non-Lyris List Manager bound mail to Sendmail.
4) DISABLE SENDMAIL RECEIVING: disable Sendmail mail receiving, and allow Lyris List Manager to receive all mail sent to this machine.
Method "1" is the easiest approach. Method "2" is recommended for most sites. Depending on your needs, you may find methods "3" or "4" acceptable.
