When I send a test email to a pipe I just setup it bounces with the following error:
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
223|/home/dsd/public_html/cli/index.php224@server.dsdsupport.com
(ultimately generated from support@dsdsupport.com)
Unrouteable address
I setup mail piping with Exim so that e-mails sent to a specific account be forwarded to my PHP script. It's not working properly, because when I send a mail to this account, it's bounced by the mailer daemon:
Code:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
pipe to |/home/user/public_html/support/parse.php
generated by support@mydomain.com
local delivery failed
In my /etc/valiases/domain.com file I have:
Code:
support@mydomain.com: "|/home/user/public_html/support/parse.php"
*: :blackhole:
What can be causing the error?
I can't seem to have any luck with these damned companies I buy renewed support contracts through. So here's my new issue, finally ModernBill and Kayako are setup and the box is running however i'm trying to get e-mail piping setup for E-Support. Ive created an email account in plesk both as a mail box and without a mailbox to see if that made a difference I added the line with quotations to the file it says to add which mind you isn't there in the first place it's a new file.
I've created the email queue pipe in kayako and no go sending an email to that address doesn't bounce back nor does it open a ticket.
E-mail piping in Plesk Control Panel
This procedure explains how to set up e-mail piping in the Plesk Control Panel.
1. Via SSH, you need to manually edit the file:
a. /var/qmail/mailnames/company.com/.qmail-support
b. Where support is the e-mail alias name (support@yourdomain.com).
2. The .qmail-support is the name of the file we are editing, and in it we will place the pipe
command.
3. Inside this file, the following command needs to be entered:
a. “|/home/httpd/vhosts/company.com/httpdocs/full/path/to/cli/index.php”
4. This command will pipe | incoming e-mails to the specified location.
5. Save the file.
After some messing around I found out the location of the .qmail was wrong in the manual so I've now added it however I get this error,
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at liquidwind.plexnetworks.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<general@plexnetworks.com>:
/bin/sh: /var/www/vhosts/plexnetworks.com/subdomains/helpdesk/httpdocs/cli/index.php: Permission denied
I've changed the permission to 777 and same result.
I try to work out a system where I can get the context of an incoming E-mail and input it to another E-mail which I then forward to a different address. Must be able to preconfigure both the incoming and outgoing E-mail addresses so to be working as an automated kind of system. Any ideas, email manager lists, softwares, scripts, even some ticketing system would be considered. Please, do post your experience/knowledge. I just need to makeb a simple simple system to do the job described above.

I have tried editing .qmail and I have also tried this tutorial -[URL] ..... but nothing is working for me at the moment.
My server which runs cPanel (license issued touchsupport) is having problems with handling emails.
I use an external DNS provider (editdns.net) only for this 1 particular domain for handling many Records and such. Through their panel, I have added my mail server's record, i.e. "mailserver.tld".
Now there is a problem with one part of the email issue. I have email piping setup and 1 webmail account setup too. These two work flawlessly. No issues with them. But email forwarding and default address doesn't work.
I am confident that the email settings are working right because, when my clients send an email, piping works and my support system creates a new ticket. But the email forwarding/Default EMail doesn't.
Not just that, I cannot even connect to the webmail account I created via POP3. I 100% sure that I used the correct login credentials and also tried the "+" and ":" for the username part. Just doesn't work. But I can access and read my emails via the Webmail (squirrelmail).
Please help me out with this as soon as possible.
I'm having difficulty sending an email to another email address (with a different domain) which is on the same VPS.The trouble is, on the other domain's VPS control panel, within the DNS settings, the MX records have been pointed externally (to an exchange server). Their email is turned off. But bizarrely, their mailbox is full.
It seems as though Plesk is ignoring the MX records, and sending MY email internally to the OTHER domain's mailbox on the same VPS.How do I get Plesk to send my mail to the correct EXTERNAL MX records?
I had a email address I deleted on my server (postfix on Debian 4), but to my surprise the server still recieves email for the address!
(I have manually tried sending a email to the address and it comes througt).
I have deleted the address from the /etc/postfix/virtual file and restarted postfix.
What could I have forgotten?
One of my customers asked me if is possible technically to offer free email services.
Since he's going to launch a big portal he want to offer such things later, for all users.
Now, there are problems as:
a) if there is any possibility to compress emails similar with GMAIL or YahooMail or so, because i can't imagine the email is uncompressed
b) how can be handled email boxes over multiple (mail ?) servers if the HDD space needed would be larger than for one server HDD ?
I am having an email issue and I can not resolve. I am hoping for some assisstance here.
One of my local clients are not able to email each other in their office. (About 10 employess I believe)
They are using Outlook mail client, and using ISP's SMTP server. They are able to send/recieve email to other users externally, but not intenally.
Using webmail works perfectly fine.
I spoke with my host and the said everything is working fine. I checked with the ISP to see if they are blocking the IP address on the SMTP server. They said they were not.
I have a personal account on the same server and tried to send email to another local email account, and it did not work either. Tried to send email to my clients email and they did not recieve anything.
I am on the same ISP as my client, so Im still not sure if its the ISP or not.
On one my servers, I'm receiving hundreds of spam emails that are clogging up the email queue to email addresses that do not exist.
For instance domain.com, I would get
bob@domain.com
liz@domain.com
325235@domain.com
You get the picture. How do I setup my server so that if there isn't an email address setup the email automatically gets deleted instead of trying to attempt to deliver it?
I have a client who has his own hosting account, and wants to leave his e-mail on his own hosting account, but his website on my hosting account.
On his own hosting he has created a sub domain called shop, and pointed its A record to the IP address of my server. On my server I've setup his domain name, and created the sub domain shop. That all works fine.
The problem I have is that the site under the shop domain needs to send an e-mail to sales@hisdomain.com. Now my server thinks the main domain is setup on my server, so it sends the e-mail to itself.
I'm justing wondering how I can get the server to point the mails back to his hosting?
A previous host I've used said they had to add the domain as a remote domain on the server, then they had to make some changes to /etc/localdomains because I was getting errors trying to send mails to the address.
A email account can send email, but cannot receive email, why? How do I know the answer why?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI currently have a domain on Server 1 (Linux, Apache, Ubuntu, Matrix control panel).
This server does not have any spam filter, so I have moved all the email accounts to Server 2 (Linux, Apache, Fedora Core, Plesk) which does have a brilliant spam filter; and have changed the DNS record for mail.domain.com to the IP address for Server 2.
Emails are being successfully received on Server 2.
On Server 1, when an email is sent through SMTP to an address at that domain, it does not send it to Server 2, it gets delivered to the hosting account for the domain on Server 1. So what I am guessing is happening is that Server 1 detects the domain has an account on the server, and instead of looking up the DNS info for that domain, just assumes it is on Server 1.
What I need to do, is force Server 1 to send email for that domain to Server 2. Is this possible, and if so, how can it be achieved? If more info about the server is required for a solution please let me know and I'll provide what I can.
I have a Windoze box with three ip addresses and running Mailenable Professional as the mail server software. I do not run any DNS, rather I set up the domain to point to my server at the registrar. All of a sudden I'm getting returned mail, "This server requires PTR for unauthenticated connections". When I run the diagnostics on the mail server it says that none of my ip addresses have reverse dns....... I'm confused, what do I need to do at the registar and server level to feel joy again?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've searched around on the forums and it's really confusing to choose a host. I was wondering if you could pls recommend me a host...
The system will have about 20 users and each user should have about 4-500mb space for email. FTP will be used fairly often too with file sizes up to a few hundred mb. The website won't take up much space.
i have a client that has configurated his email in Windows/Outlook and it works perfectly..
the problem is that, when he configurates it from a Mac, he can recieve emails but he cant send..
its the same internet connection..
My question... Is there anything else that he has to configurate in Mac that he doesnt in windows?
What is more recomended. Using a hosted service such as Google Apps or using the VPS server for email?

For sure, this is no spamming, but I know that some companies out there are sensitive to a lot of emails. Therefore I am looking for a company who will talk to me first if they have any concerns and who will not suspend my account the rambo way ;-)
We have been using ************ for about 6months now and have had an ok experience on their windows servers.. But recently we have been getting delayed emails, coming in between 5 minutes to 10 hours after an order has been submitted. We have submitted several help tickets. They say what email is having trouble and its all of them, they say we will check on it and then nothing, its sporatic but sometimes its totally unacceptable.
View 4 Replies View RelatedPROBLEM: Emails sent via BCC end up with the TO: field empty and some servers reject the emails if the TO: field is empty."
Hi folks, I recently moved from a certain provider who had raised their rates twice in one year (and some of you know who I'm talking about). I moved to another provider for my dedicated server, but now have a problem with email I send from my forum. I run a discussion forum and sometimes need to send notices to my members. I use an admin "control panel" in the forum software (similar to THIS forum). I send the emails out via BCC, but there is a place to put a default address, such as "members@myforum.com" . With my previous server, when I would send those out via BCC and the received emails would have the default address in the TO: field. However, since moving to the new server, the emails no longer have the default address and instead the TO: field is blank when people receive the emails. The problem is, some people
s servers require someting in the TO: field or they reject the email.
Assuming this is a server problem (mail server configuration?) does nayone have any ideas what the propblem might be? I'm using the exact same software as I used on the old server where things worked properly.
The reply my reseller gave me was as follows........
the domain overseas does not have the correct RFC dns entrys hence our mailserver will NOT accept NOR deliver email to it or accept from it. This may have not been an issue where you previously hosted due to the fact that they most likely used an insecure setup for the mail server. This issue is closed
-------------------------------
My customer can email his customers in china / russia just fine... but when they email him they get bounced back...
I do not understand RFC?
This customer has had different email problems with all of the 3 hosts he has been with. His last host mail worked fine 80% of the time, and he left because their servers were always down...
why mail from bk.ru eavangard.ru and tmag.com.cn and even yahoo.co.in
would be bounced back to the senders?
