I have a VPS in which mails are hanging in Mailqueue. When I use these commands at SSH(iptables -D OUTPUT 2 iptables -D OUTPUT 1 ), every thing goes fine and mails are started delivering but after 8 or 9 hours same problem occurs.
So my question is:
Can there be a permanent solution for this problem?
I've got a client who seems to be having a problem with his e-mail on my VPS.
When he tries to download mails his browser(thunderbird) says 'Receiving one of 80' and hangs. The only solution is to go into webmail and delete some of the mails then try and receive them again. One thing that puzzles me is he doesn't have 80 mails in his account, he only have 33.
This isn't happening with anyone else who's using thunderbird and my VPS.
We are hosting a site on w2k3 server and every couple of days it just hangs. type in the url and it will not load, it timesout then u see the typical 404 error page. We have about 150 websites hosted on the same server, it just happens to this one.
Restart the application and its back up like it's never been down, speedy and running smoothly. I have tried looking for memory leaks, i've put it in its own application pool and it still happens.
Our client is getting frustrated by this and so are we with ourselves for not being able to resolve it.
So I requested a total of 5 to 6 times for a reboot from my DC. Whenever I try to start my AFP firewall, it just hang my server. Even after I reinstall AFP and start it, it still hang my server! Is there any log file where I can keep track of the problem?
A spammer (probably www.powerball.com) is sending spams using one of my email addresses as his / her "from" address. This hanged my mail server last week and it took more than 60 hours to solve the problem.
My host replied me the problem was "You have over 100,000 emails in your mail queue due to a large amount of Frozen emails that were either deferred by the remote servers or sent to invalid addresses repeatedly".
From this morning, my emails are blocked again. I can't send / receive mails using any of my email accounts (from this server). I don't know how long this will take again to solve the situation, and I'm afraid that this may not be the last time.
Now I don't know what to do. Ideally, a logical solution could be to delete any bounced mail automatically (I'm using nutsmail + squirrel mail).
My video sharing site has high traffic, alexa rate:3,000
My site has 2 servers to split the load. 2 servers share a mysql server. Using rrdns to load the balance.
Server A running mysql 5.0,lighttpd Server B running lighttpd. Server B connect to A's mysql database.
During peak time. B can not connect to A's mysql server. It says server not responding. But A still running fine. When I check mysql log file. /usr/libexec/mysqld: Forcing close of thread .....
And when run top, the load average is 20.
The spec of Server A Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.06GHz dual core. 2G Ram.
Here is the my.cnf
Quote:
[mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock # Default to using old password format for compatibility with mysql 3.x # clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package). old_passwords=1 max_connections = 1000 wait_timeout=60 connect_timeout=10 interactive_timeout=120 join_buffer_size=1M query_cache_size=128M query_cache_limit=2M max_allowed_packet=16M table_cache=1024 sort_buffer_size=2M read_buffer_size=2M
My question, do I need another maching C to run lighttpd, and just keep mysql on A. Or I can do some mysql optimization on A.
Also, if my site keeps going, can I have 1 mysql server and 5 http servers?
After the micro update, the database copy function started to hung even just for copying database with 4 tables with less than 10 rows of recrods. Although I followed the link below to remove the hung database copy and remove the unfinished database copied. URL....However, no successful database was copied at all even after the timeout was adjusted.
recently my mails are not been sent to hotmail and live users from the forum
I just checked by sending a test mail to my hotmail account but the mail wasn't recd. so
I checked the mail queue manager in WHM and the hotmail related mails were not traced.
how I can overcome this problem, I can send mail to hotmail if they are bouncing but when I don't find in the queue , what can I mail about them , when they ask an error id
I sent mass mail from vBulletin forum and I want to see status of those mails via ssh. I mean, I need to see how many mails is sent well, how many of them are still sending e.t.c
I have a bare minimal server which I want to move WHMCS over to. However, how do I setup e-mails so I can setill PIPE them into the system? The e-mail server would be hosted on the main server still.
I installed litespeed but now I can't send mails, I didn't got any error but mails are not delivered. My ip is not listed at spamhaus or something like that. Before, with apache it worked fine
I have a test server from which I can send out emails.. but I am unable to receive emails although I can connect and login to the pop3 server locally (telnet localhost 110)
How can I investigate this issue to find the problem and fix it
I'm having a problem with mails on my server. I configured csf and ddos deflate to send a mail to "root" when some ip is blocked. I made .forward in /root dir with my mail but I still don't recieve an email when an ip is blocked by csf or ddos deflate

Eventhough, I did not setup any signatures. Plesk server with spamguardian running.
One of my e-mail addresses - steve@acme.ie - is regularly marked as spam. My mail server is not blacklisted. My e-mails are always plaintext, and only sometimes have URLs in them.
Looking at my mail server health everything looks ok except for what I assume are reverse DNS entries for my domain. So I'm guessing this is the problem.
So...
1. Do I need to ask my hosting company (I have a dedicated server with the planet) to set up reverse DNS entries for all my domains, or can I do this manually? Note I use my own DNS server, I do not use the hosting company's DNS server.
2. Will it be a problem that all my domains (dublinjobs.ie, acme.ie, etc.) use the same IP?
well we are reseller with some dozens of site... we use squirell mail for mails for all the sites hosted with us..or the cpanel...
the problem lately is that our sites mail.............all sites hosted with us are getting hundreds of spams every day..mails of all sites seems similar...
even if we create a new site in our account..a brand new site starts getting hundreds of spam mails..
so it has made things very difficult...
most of mail seems normal with normal names and normal subject like hello... so it is making things very difficult .. we feel that ip of server has been targeted by spammers..
Can someone who really knows what they are talking about write me up a very quick parag. on the reasons why the internet is becoming overloaded w/ e-mail & why people don't get their e-mails besides spam filters filtering them, for example the grey/black list, detecting viruses in Word when the person's anti virus isn't picking it up, etc.
I would like to block emails that contain certain subject that goes to one domain and also the one being sent internally between the users on the same domain. The tricky part is, the recipient of the blocked email will receive a notification (The message has been blocked. To retrieve the full emails, please contact the administrator). Anybody has done it before?
i recently changed host and after i changed host, i am unable to send emails to hotmail from my mail server. Gmail and yahoo are fine.
The error message from Hotmail:
SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<webmaster@joinmo.com> SIZE=3494: host mx3.hotmail.com [65.54.244.200]: 550 Your e-mail was rejected for policy reasons on this gateway. Reasons for rejection may be related to content with spam-like characteristics or IP/domain reputation problems. If you are not an e-mail/network admin please contact your E-mail/Internet Service Provider for help. For e-mail delivery information, please go to [url]
I also ran a dnsreport and heres the result [url]
I have contacted microsoft but really not sure when they will give me a reply .. meanwhile, if there is any solution to my problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
For some reason... No one with a Comcast.net email address can email us..
Always the Rejected Email comes back with This message:
