Re: Is SELinux blocking all forward-only mail agents? (esmtp/ssmtp)

esmtp and ssmtp, and both seem unable to work without tripping on
SELinux. It looks like they always inherit the context of the calling
program, which doesn't have the rights to, say, connect outside on port
25.
Is there a way?
Long term, policy for this type of forwarder would need to be written.
Short term, you could try re-using the sendmail policy:
e.g.
# chcon -t sendmail_exec_t /path/to/ssmtp
See if that helps.
