Sendmail log email content

  • 772

Is there a way I can view / log the email content sent by sendmail?

By default it only shows some header information. I wanted to inspect the actual email content.

My machine is running Fedora 13.

sendmail

  1. I see two options to achieve this:

    1. Write your own milter that logs content wherever you want to
    2. Use MIMEDefang to do this

  2. There are mail-archival gateway appliances which also perform this function. A quick search on "mail archive hipaa compliance" will get you started. These appliances are often transparent, though some require setting "smarthost" in your server configuration.
