Users can send emails but don't receive

[botic]

Hi everybody,

I have a strange thing since yesterday: my users can send emails but don't receive messages from other domain names.
I'm using a cron job which runs a cmd every 5 mins.
The main account is catchall and I can test it with the following result:

Connecting to localhost ...
< +OK POP3 secure [cppop 16.2] at [127.0.0.1]
> USER catchall@id7.com
< +OK Need a password
> PASS ***
< +OK You have 0 messages totaling 0 octets from /home/id7com/mail/id7.com/catchall/inbox (full load)
> STAT
< +OK 0 0
Closing connection.

I already sent emails to id7.com but seems that catchall doesn't receive them... Who can help me?

THX

Have you tried tailing /var/log/exim_mainlog when sending a message to the domain and seeing if there are any errors. You might also run /scripts/mailperms

Hi Sparek,

I checked the file exim_mainlog and his size is already 33Mbyte!

[botic]

If you can tell me how to run this command (humm sorry) I'm using putty

[sparek-3]

You can tail the exim_mainlog with:

tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog


Then send a message to the domain name. If the message arrives to the server but does not get delivered it should be noted there.

[botic]

could you tell me how to stop the script?

[sparek-3]

To stop the tail? Just press Ctrl+C

It looks like you have a configuration error with your ClamAV setup. Some of the ClamAV gurus on here, might be able to offer more help. You can try restarting exim and seeing if that fixes the problem:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/exim restart

[botic]

I checked the clam file and the size is at 0! Could you tell me how do I reinstall this file?

[botic]

Shutting down clamd: [FAILED]
Shutting down exim: [ OK ]
Shutting down antirelayd: [ OK ]
Shutting down spamd: [ OK ]
Starting clamd: [ OK ]
Starting exim: [ OK ]
Starting exim-smtps: [ OK ]
Starting antirelayd: [ OK ]
Starting spamd: [ OK ]


Ok here is the result

[sparek-3]

Now do you get the same error when you send mail to the domain?

[botic]

yes still the same..unable to connect to UNIX socket /var/clamd

Hi,

Did you have the backup of clame configuratin file. If yes just restore it and try to restart the exim. May possible with this your problem will get slove.
