    Default 421 Lost incoming connection - Mail held in Queue (HELP NEEDED

    421 Lost incoming connection - Mail held in Queue (HELP NEEDED

    Spam Assassin is NOT running.

    I've tried everything (even updating everything).

    I'm receiving the following on all emails sent to a specific domain on my server.. Other domains seem ok. Not sure why.. They are being held in the Mail Queue, but will not send.. I'm at my wits end.


    An error was detected while processing a file of BSMTP input.
    The error message was:

    421 Lost incoming connection

    The SMTP transaction started in line 0.
    The error was detected in line 3.
    0 previous messages were successfully processed.
    The rest of the batch was abandoned.
    421 Lost incoming connection
    Transaction started in line 0
    Error detected in line
    ----------------------
    This was also detailed in the mailqueue.

    This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

    A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
    recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

    xxxx@xxxx.com
    local delivery failed
    ------------------------------
    Still having the problem.. Here is a snippet from var/log/exim_mainlog


    I replaced domains with xxx.xxx.com

    --------------------------
    2005-01-24 17:58:51 SMTP connection from xxx lost while reading message data (header)
    2005-01-24 17:58:51 1CtFyl-0007v9-DF <xxx@xxx.com>: virtual_sa_userdelivery transport output: An error was detected while processing a file of BSMTP input.
    2005-01-24 17:58:51 1CtFyl-0007v9-DF == xxx@xxx.com R=virtual_sa_user T=virtual_sa_userdelivery defer (-24): Transport filter process failed (127): unable to execute command

    -------------------------

    And when I attempt to force delivery a message (using mailque/deliver in cpanel's DHM) I get the following



    Message 1CtG96-00081E-SO is not frozen
    delivering 1CtG96-00081E-SO
    LOG: MAIN
    <xxx@xxx.com>: virtual_sa_userdelivery transport output: An error was detected while processing a file of BSMTP input.
    LOG: MAIN PANIC
    == xxx@xxx.com R=virtual_sa_user T=virtual_sa_userdelivery defer (-24): Transport filter process failed (127): unable to execute command

    That error is because spamd is not installed.

    The installation is hanging due to a CPAN error.

    Follow the steps

    1 - perl -MCPAN -e 'install HTML::Tagset;'
    2 - /scripts/installspam
    3 - /scripts/restartsrv_spamd
    4 - /etc/init.d/exim restart
    5 - /etc/init.d/cpanel restart

    Done

    Regard´s
