Maestro Madness
Can someone please guide me with the steps to setup sendmail(or internal_sendmail) and use bash script to trigger email with SmartTask event(Post-publish event)
The script should send the session json payload in the email body.
With sendmail - I am not able to find the place which records the source auth details.
As I recall the built-in “sendmail” command is fairly simplistic with a few items specified as parameters.
One SK that might help: https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solut...
Thanks.
Can 'From' mail-id be anything? No need to specify Authentication key?
Can I use google smtp server 'smtp.gmail.com' or does it have to be internal?
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# $FWDIR/bin/sendmail -t smtp.gmail.com -m test
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# echo $FWDIR
/opt/CPsuite-R81.10/fw1
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# which sendmail
/sbin/sendmail
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# /sbin/sendmail -t smtp.gmail.com -m test
sendmail: account default not found: no configuration file available
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# which sendmail
/sbin/sendmail
[Expert@Mgmt:0]# cat test
root@checkpoint.com
validuser@gmail.com

As written above - gmail can not work, you need an internal server (relay is much too ugly).
I don't think it will work if Gmail requires authentication.
Typical use case would point to an internal SMTP relay.
