=== Sending a Mail Message from VM2 (Using Thunderbird)===
First use netstat and telnet to confirm your service is listening on '''Perform the correct ports/interfaces. You will probably have to open the appropriate firewall port on vm3 to allow incoming SMTP connections.following steps:'''
If all worked so far - #Use the '''netstat''' and '''telnet''' commands (like you should be able to send email did in lab 4b) to any regular user confirm your service is listening on vm3 using the email address yourusername@yoursenecaidcorrect ports/interfaces.org using Thunderbird You will probably have to open the appropriate firewall port on vm2'''vm3''' to allow incoming '''SMTP''' connections.
:'''Note:''' You should be able to send email to any regular user <u>on</u> '''vm3''' using the email address '''yourusername@yoursenecaid.org''' using the Thunderbird application on vm2 machine. <ol><li value="2">Create a new account on your '''vm3 ''' machine using only your <u>first </u> name. We'll will use this account as a one -time for testing receiving email"test" if the mail message has been received on your VM3 machine (from your VM2 machine). </li></ol> :'''NOTE:''' Itis <u>'''s rather important '''</u> that you '''<u>don't </u>''' create this same account name on your vm2 - so that machine, since you continue want to see easily identify the difference between the sending and receiving SMTP servers.
We still haven't set up IMAP (for reading email) but we can test that the message is being delivered. Use the new account in Thunderbird to send an email to firstname@yoursenecaid.org and then check the contents of /home/firstname/Maildir/new/ on vm3. - there should be a file there with the contents of your email.
