Please install an MTA on this system if you want to use sendmail!












3















I get this message in /var/log/apache2/error.log everytime a cronjob on my desktop wgets a php page that tries to send an email.



How can I install a dummy so this message is gone?



I already have installed lsb-invalid-mta but still.

          Apparently, you don't want this php page to actually try to send emails. So try any of these:




          • delete that php page, which is useless anyway since you don't intend to have a mailer

          • correct the page so that a simple wget doesn't trigger mail sending (which seems very wrong)

          • list the page in /robots.txt, which wget respects (unless told not to)

          • tell wget to ignore the directory this file is in. (Unfortunately, it seems that wget cannot exclude specific files).
