exim mail down ?

[erik@delphi]

hi people,

I can't send nor receive email through my server.Yesterday it was still working fine but today i noticed it isn't.I mean no errors at all but no emails either

usr/sbin/exim -bt [email protected]

[email protected] cannot be resolved at this time: 
All deliveries are handled by MailScanner

I don't even get a bounced back error message.What the heck is going on here ?? i'm getting nuts

 /usr/sbin/exim -qff

2006-10-21 10:01:05 1GbCyi-0001yi-J6 == mail_adress_here R=defer_router defer (-1): All deliveries are handled by MailScanner

the above is shown in my /var/log/exim_mainlog

look what i found

if i run this command

exigrep [email protected] /var/log/exim_mainlog

it show me

Could not complete sender verify callout

Now, it's rather difficult to help identify exactly where the problem might without actually looking into your server.

Did you check that /etc/exim_outgoing.conf file exist?
Did you check that MailScanner is running?
Did you restart MailScanner?

If they don't work, monitor Exim log files, and then send an email:
tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog
tail -f /var/log/maillog

Do you see MailScanner start processing shortly after an email arrives, according to both logs?

The error means that your exim/MailScanner setup was broken. Typically this can happen if you install the clamavconnector. Either way, it's usually easily fixed.
