Eventum with Sendmail

Quick notes:

When you're setting up Eventum's issue routing for Sendmail, use these options in the Administration -> General Setup area:

Email Routing Interface: Enabled Recipient Type Flag: [doesn't matter, choose any] Email Address Prefix: eventum_issues+ Address Hostname: [the domain name of the email address issues should be sent to] Warn Users Whether They Can Send Emails to Issue: [doesn't matter, choose any]


In your /etc/mail/virtusertable, add the entry:

eventum_issues@yourdomain.com       eventum_issues%3

(that's tab separated, not space separated, and the %3 on the end is there on purpose)

Then rebuild the virtual email users table with (as root):

# make -C /etc/mail

That directs all of the incoming emails for eventum_issues+xyz@yourdomain.com to the email account called "eventum_issues" on the mail server, which you then need to setup Eventum to check occasionally.
