My host gave refuge to a ROKSO spammer and got the C-block listed in SpamHaus and cant get it removed.
So they mapped a new, clean IP to my server and I need to change the IP that my MTA is sending out under. Since I didnt set this up and the guy who did is not avaliable to me ATM, I cant seem to figure this out.
I am currently setting up my server, and are experiencing some problems.
Some of the mails sendt with the php mail() func, ends up in the mail queue in DA, and I get the following error log in DA:
2009-06-04 20:36:02 Received from <> R=1MCHnG-0005uQ-9v U=mail P=local S=1344 T="Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender"
2009-06-04 20:36:02 routing failed for admin@vmnd001.local <admin@munnbind.net> F=<>: Unrouteable address
2009-06-04 20:36:02 routing failed for admin@vmnd001.local <admin@munnbind.net> F=<>: Unrouteable address
*** Frozen (delivery error message)
This only happens with some email domains though. If I set the recipient to my yahoo mail, it works as a sharm, but when I set my other email (<<removed>>) as recipient, i get the error log above.
1. What is the difference between the send & smtp tables within MySQL's eximstats?
2. What do they log?
3. Do they get cleaned up and old stats gets removed?
I have loads of spam messages being sent from my VPS and I think one (or more) of the legit email accounts are used to send spam (either someone worked out the passwords or users of those accounts have malicious software installed on their machines.
How can I check which email accounts send which emails? Currently nothing is being logged by qmail (/var/log/mail* are empty).
Every email which gets automatically sent out from my server begins with:
Reply-To: noreply@MYDOMAIN.com
X-Mailer: PHP/4.4.7
Message-Id: <20080319210750.564111CEC004@mx.MYDOMAIN.com>

Dear DOMAIN.com Member,
This is not in our PHP code or anything, and I can't seem to remove it, its just a tad annoying. How do I remove it?
I have these lines in sendmail.mc and I've compiled the sendmail.cf with them:
LOCAL_DOMAIN(`freesexdoor.com')dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(`freesexdoor.com')dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost)dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost.localdomain)dnl
I have the users daemon, freesexd and root in the trusted_users file. I have restarted sendmail (using service sendmail restart). I have the domains: server.freesexdoor.com, freesexdoor.com and mail.freesexdoor.com in the sendmail's local_hosts file.
In Apache 2's httpd.conf, I have this: php_admin_value sendmail_path '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f freesexd [at} freesexdoor.com'
Yet when I sent an e-mail with php to advertising [at} freesexdoor.com, I got these headers in the e-mail, which don't look good to a spam filter:
Received: from localhost.localdomain (IS-3293 [127.0.0.1])
by localhost.localdomain (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id
Received: (from daemon@localhost)
by localhost.localdomain (8.13.8/8.13.8/Submit) id
Message-Id: <200712180935.lBI9ZrRs005480@localhost.localdomain>
Additionally hotmail rejects my e-mails and it is obvious why. (My OpenSPF record is fine btw and on my former server I was able to send e-mails with it fine.)
Naturally I want something like "freesexdoor.com" to replace "localhost.localdomain" in those header lines. So how can I get this working?
The OS is CentOS 5 by the way.
Why does the WHM panel send me my private key and passphrase for my SSL certificate to my inbox when I generate a CSR? Um... isn't that a bit insecure?
I purchased a Rapid SSL cert from NameCheap who then needed a Certificate Signature Request(CSR) which is generated from WHM.
After generating the CSR, WHM sent me an email that is literally titled 'SSL RSA PRIVATE KEY for *.<domain_removed>.com'
The email not only contains the ----- RSA PRIVATE KEY----- but also my 'challenge password' .
is this supposed to happen? and why on earth would my private key and passphrase be sent via unencrypted email? The only think I can think of is that the WHM panel feature is being used to generate the CSR and is sending me a self-signed cert private key , which I'm not going to use (i'm only going to use the CSR) Even if thats the case, I think it still shouldn't happen, its too confusing for newbies like me and I could just end up using the same passphrase for my actual certificate.
Here are the steps I followed:
1. purchased a RapidSSL from namecheap
2. Clicked 'Activate' in namecheap's SSL dashboard which then asks me for a CSR.
To get the CSR, per Site5's wiki:
1.logged into WHM
2. clicked 'Generate a SSL Certificate and Signing Request'
3. completed the 'create a new cert' form which among other things, asks me for the 'Email address the cert will be sent to'. For all the fields, see the site5 wiki
4. click Create

I want to change the IP of Mail Server,
I m using cpanel and exim 4 and my server ip is black list. Now i want to change my server ip address.
How can i do this?
I have edited exim.conf

driver = smtp
interface = 192.168.0.1
But it is not working please guide me any other way.
I have contacted hotmail asking why automated emails such as registration verification are being blocked and they said that my server's IP was on a blacklist for spam. I never spam and I do not think a bot has phished using my server's IP. Anyway, if I were to switch server IPs would that solve the problem?

I am on a VPS service (CentOS Linux) and I want my php mail function emails to send from a specified address. I've already manipulated the headers, so the emails do appear to come from the specified addres, but on mobile devices it comes up as nobody@server1.mydomain.com format. I would like this to read something like no-reply@mydomain.com
know which configuration files can change this default address?
we have identified a number of customers with weak passwords - we wish to send them an email and then wait 1 hour - then change their passwords to the new password we have identified - due to them being across multiple domains, we don't want to do this via the PPA web gui - it would take quite a long time.
What is/are the commands for changing mailbox password for SMTP/IMAP/POP3??
i.e., is there a PPA command for changing both sides of send/receive?
