[kdoublei]

i started a new website that sends out a confirmation email for people to join but instead i get the email sent to me saying its undeliverable. after 10 or so i get an email that says this:
Below are the recently upload scripts that contain code to send email. You may wish to inspect them to ensure they are not sending out SPAM.

how do i approve this script to send out those emails

This is just a notification and will not affect your script in any ways.. You will need to to post the error that you receive in the bounce back emails. You can also check /var/log/exim_mainlog for any errors.

and it seems to send this out when i i get a new sign up to the site and not when a video is uploaded. i get the video uploaded emails just fine. and now i think about it it might be a problem with the script. i'll try that board too

[Murtaza_t]

The exact error is:

unrouteable mail domain "yahoo.com"

this may be caused due to several reasons:

try pinging/dig yahoo.com from your server, is its does not respond then it is a resolve.conf problem, you will need to set it properly.

If you server is able to ping it without any probs then, just make sure that you have a proper value set in WHM >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings >> The maximum each domain can send out per hour.

I hope that it helps.

im new to this so i dont know how to ping from my server. i do get this error with every single email the script tries to send. but i did look in the teak setting which is set as 0 which is unlimited

[freedman]

if it can't route to 'yahoo.com' then it either can't resolve the hostname:
/etc/resolv.conf

or there's a network router issue.

on your server try the following:
# nslookup yahoo.com
(this should produce something similar to
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: yahoo.com
Address: 66.94.234.13
Name: yahoo.com
Address: 216.109.112.135

then try this:
# ping yahoo.com
(this should produce something similar to
PING yahoo.com (66.94.234.13) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=1 ttl=49 time=45.4 ms
64 bytes from w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com (66.94.234.13): icmp_seq=2 ttl=49 time=44.8 ms


If the nslookup fails, then your resolve.conf isn't listing any working DNS servers, and you should check with your webhost, or whomever you get networking from to find out what DNS servers they'd like you to use.


if the ping doesn't work, then check with your network/server provider and have them help you.
