TLS connections don't work in sendmail when TLS is on: Dec 20 15:00:48 harry kernel: audit(1103515248.224:0): avc: denied { read } for pid=12496 exe=/usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail name=urandom dev=tmpfs ino=870 scontext=user_u:system_r:system_mail_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:urandom_device_t tclass=chr_file maillog contains several errors, starting with: sendmail[4239]: iBJBWAxA004239: STARTTLS=client, error: connect failed=-1, SSL_error=1, timedout=0, errno=0 sendmail[4239]: STARTTLS=client: 4239:error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded:md_rand.c:503:You need to read the OpenSSL FAQ, http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html My solution to this problem was to add the following line to mta.te: allow system_mail_t urandom_device_t:chr_file read; This appears to have fixed the problem for me.
