E-mails aren't being delivered locally

[chrille112]

This is my problem:

I have PHP script to send e-mails:

<?
mail("chrille@DOMAIN-A.com","testar","hejhej");
mail("chrille@DOMAIN-B.com","testar","hejhej");
mail("scroller@DOMAIN-C.com","testar","hejhej");
?>

Domain A and C are hosted on the server I'm running the script from, and B is on an external server. The delivery works perfectly to the external domain, but internally the e-mails never gets delivered!

In /var/log/exim_mainlog it looks correctly:

2007-02-11 21:57:06 1HGLlJ-0001WD-TB => halvapri <chrille@DOMAIN-A.com> R=localuser T=local_delivery
2007-02-11 21:57:06 1HGLlJ-0001WD-TB Completed

How do I solve this? What log file should I look in to see more?

Using your favorite Linux editor such as pico or vi /etc/hosts
and add this directive:
localhost.localdomain localhost
see if that helps.

Thanks for your reply!

Added it:

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1               localhost
217.198.123.123         homer.blah.com homer cpanel.dependit.net cpanel
localhost.localdomain   localhost

But it did not help Did I add it correctly?

[AndyReed]

ummm, no. It should be:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

[chrille112]

OK! Changed:

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
217.198.123.123         homer.blah.com homer cpanel.dependit.net cpanel

(tried to add an own line too)
But it didn't help The external mail works fine, but not internal

You need to check /var/log/exim_* files for errors to help you troubleshoot this problem. Did you enable "Track the origin of messages sent though the mail server by adding the X-Sender headers (exim 4.34+ required)" in the WHM >> Tweak Settings? If yes, disable it and see if that works.

[chrille112]

"Track the origin" was already disabled.

In exim_mainlog, it looks just fine:

mainlog:

2007-02-12 18:37:53 1HGf84-0006bC-0b Completed

Paniclog and rejectlog says nothing about these mails




EDIT: My misstake, I messed up... This is how it is:
adnic.com is the server I'm running the script at. The mail is not delivered to scroller@adnic.com
halvapriset.com and reklambutiken.com is another server. The mail is being delivered to chrille@reklambutiken.com, but not to chrille@halvapriset.com

That is really strange?

[brianoz]

I'd try /var/log/exim_* -- in particular /var/log/exim_mainlog.

I'd try /var/log/exim_* -- in particular /var/log/exim_mainlog.

But this is /var/log/exim_mainlog?

See if this thread helps. We had a similar problem like yours and this worked. Boxtrap got enabled and we have it disabled.

[chrille112]

Thanks for your reply. The boxtrap was enabled, so I disabled it. There was no /etc/eximmailtrap tough, so I tried to run my script, but it's still the same problem


------------------------
Edit: Now I know what's wrong!
I'm planning to move halvapriset.com to the adnic.com server (from where I ran the script). Therefore, I've set up an account for it. When I send mails from the server, it delivers to the local account, alltough the DNS servers point to another server. That's whats wrong I checked the mail on the new account, and all was there Thanks for you help and support guys!
