    Hello :)

    It's possible that sendmail was replaced on your server at some point. Does "/etc/alternatives/mta" exist? You can check with a command such as:

    Code:
    # stat /etc/alternatives/mta
    This will sometimes link back to a sendmail binary. If not, you can reinstall sendmail via:

    Code:
    # yum install sendmail
    Thank you.

    Yeah that doesn't look right, should be something like

    Code:
    whereis sendmail
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail
    It looks from what you've provided like the alternatives system might be activated.

    What is the output of

    Code:
    rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/sbin/sendmail
    It should be something like exim-4.80-6.cp1136

    There are details on how to check the cPanel installed rpms at check_cpanel_rpms script

    Yes, You right:


    Code:
    rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/sbin/sendmail
exim-4.80-6.cp1136.x86_64
    also:

    Code:
    whereis sendmail
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail
    I changed LFD setting like this:

    SENDMAIL = /usr/sbin/exim

    and now I receive email from LFD,
    But I''m still not receiving email from cPanel !

    What should I do?

    I've just run script that you suggested and it seems everything is working fine now:

    Code:
    /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --fix

    Thanks All
