    Default :blackhole: not working anymore

    I own the domain show.ca I get about 400 e-mails a day for addresses I can only assume are for SHAW.ca/


    Anyhow for about 6 months I had no problems with the :blackhole:

    All of a sudden it's not working anymore and the mail queue is getting filled.

    If I manually deliver the mail it WILL go to the :blackhole:

    there is about 200 domains on this server and they all work fine.


    Any Ideas?

    I get a lot of support requests from customers about this issue. I have told customers not to use it since it is so buggy.

    Yeah, an example would be good. What is /dev/null? I can't cd to it and pico doesn't load a file. So what is it doing?

    use /dev/null

    Sorry, hehe, but this is the shortest 'tutorial' I've ever seen on the web. Maybe it could get listed in Guinness World Records.
