I have a new server with cPanel (10.9.0-R57). I also have another server that I have had for a while.

On the new server, I'm sure I'm overlooking something, but I don't get email notifications for the scheduled cPanel jobs (backups, logwatch, etc). I do get email notification from cPanel when new accounts are created, and I can send email as root using mutt on the server.

Where am I missing this config!??

Thanks in Advance,
Diane

OK this may have something to do with it, but i've not figured out how to overcome the issue of not receiving emails from the cron jobs...

My new server has a hostname with a domain name on another server.

i.e. the hostname of this new server is host2.domainname.com and the domain of domainname.com resides on another server.

And I'm getting User 0 set for local_delivery transport is on the never_users list in the exim_mainlog. (mail to [email protected])

But, when I create a new account in WHM, mail for [email protected] it gets delivered.

Am I explaining the problem well enough for someone to point me in the right direction?

THANKS!
Diane

Looking more through logs, the above message is what is in the exim_mainlog. This is when my cron.hourly would have run.

Any ideas?
