I confess, I am weak on Linux and mail routing and but have been tasked with setting up Sympa for my company.

We have an Office 365 tenant with MX pointing to it. Let’s call the domain example.org <http://example.org/>. All mail gets delivered to it.

My company wants to set up a Sympa server for mail list management.

I installed Sympa on a variation of RHEL, installed SQLite, installed Sendmail, and am stuck here.


Just a thought: You might consider using Postfix instead of Sendmail. You will probably find it enormously easier to correctly configure it and properly secure it (and there is an active user mailing list willing to help).

It has been said of Sendmail that Sendmail is not an MTA (Mail Transfer Agent), it is a toolkit for building MTAs. It's very good at what it *does*, but not everyone wants, needs, or *knows how* to correctly build their own MTA.
