Can you log in on the vm via ssh? Is a sendmail-equivalent command
available to you there? There are various tricks that can be played with
ssh tunneling and/or with remotely running sendmail via ssh. (I'll be
happy to provide more details if an ssh-based approach is feasible for
you.)
Yes, no problem with ssh. I have also tried simply using mutt on
the server, which works but has two disadvantages: I cannot copy mail
to the local machine, and for presumably different reasons of
misconfiguration that also cannot send mail! But the tunnelling sounds
a good way forward. I did try installing stunnel once, but the guide
I was referring to was not up to my level of ignorance.
Please do tell me more...
