Exim mail queue always ZERO !!

[furquan]

Hello all,

To my dismay today i have seen a very weird situation on my server.

When i "tail" the exim mail logs, i can see the mails flowing, But when i run the command "exim -bpc" to count the mails in the queue i only ZERO ( 0 )

Can you any one let me know what could the reason for it ?

Thank you,

Try "exim -bpc -C /etc/exim_outgoing.conf", it might be helpful.

Quick help is here.

in additional, may be your Scan Messages is disable. GO to WHM > ConfigServer MailScanner FE > MailScanner Performance > and check Scan Messages.

Thank you for your revert.

But, when i execute the given command i get an error :-

[email protected] [~]# exim -bpc -C /etc/exim_outgoing.conf
2013-01-28 16:06:01 non-existent configuration file(s): /etc/exim_outgoing.conf

Can you let me know what is missing ?

Thank you for your attention

Hello

It's possible that no email is queued for delivery. Email messages that are delivered on the initial attempt will not remain in the queue. You could try sending a message that you know will not deliver so that it stays in your mail queue if you want to verify your queue is working.

Thank you.
