Sending Email Cpanel :: SMTP Command Timeout On Connection
i have this weird problem of emails not gettign delivered and i am hosting with theplanet. Every email is sitting on the queue and not delivered.
i checked with dnsreport and it says
Timed out [Last data sent: [Did not connect]]
and my exim_mainlog shows
R=dk_lookuphost defer (-1): host lookup did not complete
2008-06-03 04:49:59 SMTP command timeout on connection
i have restarted exim, checked firewall and still i am unable to fix my problem!
update:
i again checked with dnsreport and my nameservers are failing
NS FAIL NS A timeout occurred getting the NS records from your nameservers! None of your nameservers responded fast enough. They are probably down or unreachable. I can't continue since your nameservers aren't responding. If you have a Watchguard Firebox,
it's due to a bug in their DNS Proxy, which must be disabled (31 Jul 2006 UPDATE: several years after being informed of this, there is a rumor that there is a fix that allows the Watchguard DNS proxy to work).

Sending Email (SMTP?)
I got plesk 8.2 on a linux machine (CentOS 4.3). I'm having probs sending emails. I created a few email accounts for a client. they can receive emails with no prob. however, if I set my server as the outgoing server, they are unable to send emails. could I be missing some packages? I'm using smtp.domainname.com as setting.

CPanel, Email And Smtp Port 587
Is anyone successfully using cPanel with smtp port 587 and have a working email account? After deciding that Plesk wasn't for me due to the lack of reference material in this and other forums, I had my hosting company, ServInt, delete my old vps and install a new one with cPanel. Everything went fine until I configured my email. Just like with Plesk, I cannot access the smtp server via Outlook. I can ping it successfully, but it either terminates the connection or doesn't recognize the correct user name and password. With Plesk, it was a simple matter of enabling the use of port 587. Not so with cPanel, at least for me. Even though the Exim service is enabled and another instance is enabled on port 587, I still can't connect. Thought it might be CFS, which is new to me with this install, so made sure it was disabled. Opened up a ticket with ServInt and even their techs can't get it functioning, so _they've_ opened up a ticket with cPanel. Hence the title of this post, I can't beleive that I'm the only one whose had this problem before because blocking port 587 has been done by BellSouth/AT&T for many years now. Nothing like having your company email down for over 6 hours to keep you up at night.

Clear A Specific Email Account In Cpanel Or A Command Line Way
I just recently logged into my user email account "the one which was created by the name of the user of the account" and found it had 8000 emails but none are showing up in either horde or squirrelmail. How can i delete all these emails without deleting the other bla@domain.com emails? Is there a way just to clear a specific email account in cpanel or a command line way. I think if i just delete the mail folder it would kill all the emails of that account and I just want to 'reset' that one.

SSL Email And SMTP Error - WHM/cPanel - Retail Host Certificate
We have a few users that use SSL email and we decided to purchase a cheap single-root SSL cert over at namecheap for the host name so that it would end the "self-signed cert" whining. We got the cert installed and it works great for WHM/cPanel and also works for SSL over IMAP and POP3, but the very first email anyone sends (SMTP) per day gives this warning (Outlook Express): The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified. A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which is not trusted by the trust provider. It seems obvious that the cert used by the SMTP system is not the new one we installed. We used WHM's SSL/TLS -> Change Server Certificates link to install the cert. We then made sure that: /usr/share/ssl/certs/host.domain.com.crt /usr/share/ssl/private/host.domain.com.key /etc/exim.crt /etc/exim.key ...all contained the current cert or key as appropriate. Just for grins, we even made sure: /usr/local/cpanel/etc/cpanel.pem ...had the correct pair. We restarted all the mail services and even restarted the whole server. (I know...Windows reaction...bad tech.) Does anyone know of a stealth location where the SSL cert for SMTP should be updated? WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-R139 CentOS 3.8 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0

Proftpd Timeout Connection Attempt Failed
Currently having a problem with proftpd on my centos plesk 8.1 server. During large uploads, lets say around 10 MB the FTP connection fails within 5 minutes or so saying: "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond."

ProFTPD: 421 No Transfer Timeout (300 Seconds): Closing Control Connection
Since moving servers I've been plagued by constant disconnects whilst using FTP: 421 No transfer timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection I've gone through Proftpd's forum and documentation numerous times to try and find a solution to this but have been unsuccessful so far. Within proftpd's config file it's set at: TimeoutLogin 120 TimeoutIdle 3600 TimeoutNoTransfer 3600 TimeoutStalled 3600 So I am unsure where it is getting the "300 seconds" from. Even though the error states 300 seconds, this problem happens way before 300 seconds every time and has happened during the transfer of files (when the connection has been active and in use). I've tried 3 different FTP clients and used the "Keep Alive" option in each and it has absolutely no effect. I am unsure if APF is causing the problem, I can't see any problems in any of the server logs in relation to ftp.

Sending Email 'to Domain Works But Not Sending 'from
I migrated a client from a Windows server to Linux and everything is fine except that mail sent to this client (say, example1.com) from a particular domain (say, example2.com) simply disappears and does not reach at all. Mail sent to that other domain (example2.com) from my new client (example1.com) is delivered correctly. Incidentally, that other domain (example2.com) from which the mail is sent is with the hosting provider who was earlier providing services for my newly acquired client. Should I suspect anything? Or, is there a way to figure out what's happening? I have MailScanner running on my VPS, but it isn't configured to filter at RBL level, only at Exim level, so I don't think this is the issue.

He is also asking if he is able to send emails withouth authentication using SMTP for certain IP addresses.. is that possible? Can be done for only 1 domain, or for the entire server?

SMTP Connection Has Stopped Working
I have been having great trouble sending mails from my local Thunderbird/Windows client to my Debian/Exim-server via TLS/SMTP. I am no expert on TLS and SMTP, but I managed to create a server certificate and set up a secure (TLS) connection more than a year ago, and it has been working fine until it suddenly stopped working a couple of weeks ago. Sending to external addresses from web pages still works fine, the problem seems to be in the SMTP connection. If I try to "telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 25" I get no reply whatsoever (it seems to connect but it just gives me a blank screen with a blinking cursor) and I am wondering if there is a firewall issue or if I am simply not running the right daemon to listening for incoming SMTP connections... POP continues to work fine with teapop/stunnel enabled. I am running Exim 4.63-17 on Debian Etch. I configured Exim to be of the type "internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP" ============================== Firewall shouldn't be a problem (?): debian:~# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ============================== I really don't know what to do. I have tried running: tail -f /var/log/daemon.log Which responds when I access my mail using POP but not when I try to send using SMTP.

Dedicated SMTP Server For Sending Mass Mailouts
I have a website with a 70,000 user email subscriber database. we currently send all emails from a dedicated mail server sitting in our office. its very old, unreliable and our emails are constantly going to peoples junk. i've looked into things like campaign monitor, which looks great, but our custom made email system is already in place and all we really need is a dedicated and safe smtp server to use for the actual sending of the mail. i've looked at things like SMTP2go which i have used when overseas and works great, but i'm looking for something more designed for sending of mass mailouts, as well as the day-to-day emails sent from the site (signup confirmations, forgotten password reminders, etc)

Using MediaTemple, Sending Email
I purchased a shared hosting with these guys. I transfer domain / Set up email accounts, ect. Everything is working flawlessly. So, yesterday my boss was riding my ass because he said he couldn’t send email. I went over to his house, and he was right it wouldn’t send (his client is entourage). I verifier’s smtp settings, and it just wouldn’t send. I found the problem to be his SBC. Of course he doesn’t believe that (still thinks the mailserver is the issue). So to draw this to a close. is there any way to verify that an email is being sent.. such as a receipt that the 'message has been sent'? He's using entourage on the mac. Also, what is you're normal procedure to troubleshoot smtp/pop issues?

I even tried that from several computers and several connections. The response from the host is too slow (dislike their usual).

Server For Email Sending - Best Configuration
I have a client who is a media company and is interested in using a dedicated server in order to send their daily e-newsletters by email. The server will only host a script for handling the email distribution and email database. They need to send approximately 20,000 emails every working day, in blocks of 5,000 emails. Each email includes an attached PDF file of 3Mb (this means less than 2,000Gb of bandwidth every month). They want each block of 5,000 emails to be sent within maximum 2 hours. Please let me know the suggested configuration for a server to handle this email load.

Sending Email To Another Server When The Email Address Domain Is On This Server
I 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.

How To Get Hostname/ip Of Sending Mail Server From An Email
I know how to do this by analysing the headers, but we have a customers who doesn't believe what we are telling them. Is there some kind of 3rd party service or script that we can point them to? So they can send an email to the service (or paste headers, or whatever) and it tells them who is the sending mail server hostname/ip? (The problem is that this customer doesn't understand that all email sent from the server uses the same SMTP server hostname/ip. They are convinced that if they connect to "mail.their domain.com" then this is what is reported as the sending mail server/IP.)

I am planning to run a one-day (might even be one-hour) online contest where my customers would fill out an online form where a php script inserts the form contents into a database and then sends a confirmation email to both my customer and two additional email addresses (Me and a partner). I am expecting up to 100 forms a minute to be submitted (which would translate to 300 emails) so I am looking for a reliable solution to do this without spending more than $20/month. "Throttling" the emails is not an option as delivery is time-crucial. Are there solutions out there that would handle this kind of scenario? Or perhaps solutions where I can keep my existing provider and use the new one just for scenarios such as this?

Internal Email Sending To Wrong Location
I have a dedicated Linux box hosting all of my sites. I've offloaded my email support to google's small business hosting which I am loving. One problem I continue to have is when I send email via a php form or internally through webmail - the email stays on the server thinking that I am still hosting the email myself. The email should instead be sending externally. Since my Google mail is working perfectly for everyone else in getting me my emails - I'm guessing that all of my DNS is correct. is there something that I've forgotten to change?

Webfusion VPS | Sending Email From PHP
I am trying to send an email from a php script on a Webfusion VPS. $to = "me@atmydomain.co.uk"; $subject = "Test subject"; $msg = "Test message"; $headers = "From: you@atyourdomain.co.uk Reply-To: you@atyourdomain.co.uk"; if(mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers)){ echo "Sent"; } else{ echo "Error!"; } The page displays "Sent", but I don't receive the email. Is there a setting that I should me making in either the script or via Plesk or elsewhere to enable the emails to be sent? I phoned Webfusion support, but they claim they only support hardware. Webfusion's help pages just say: I'm setting up a formmail script on my Linux VPS server? what is the path to sendmail? The path is: $mailprog = '/var/qmail/bin/sendmail -i -t'; But it doesn't explain where to put this line of code. And if it should go in the php.ini file how do I get to that?

(not sure where exactly this post belongs, but it's got something to do with my hosting so im posting it here. if any mods think it should be somewhere else, just move it to where you feel it is appropriate )

VPS Hosts Allowing Unlimited Email Sending
I am looking for a VPS hosting company that basically allows unlimited email sending without restrictions. Does it necessarily have to be off-shore? I will be sending about 300k per day, or somewhere in that neighborhood. The bandwidth and storage I am not too concerned about.

Exim Keeps Sending Thousands Of Messages To Non-valid Email.
For the last 5 days, exim has been retrying to resend email to a recipent every 1 millisecond. As result, logs are huge, and load is being affected. So I'd like to know how can I set/configure exim to ingore sending to any email I'd tell it. I mean is there any config file I can look into, to set a ignore list, or even how to have it so that it retries sending every 1 hour, instead of every 1 millisecond.

Multi Location SMTP Server Or Email Platform
for a SMTP server / hints at how it might be done to accomodate the following : One single email will be sent. If it doesn't get sent on the first try by one server, another server at another location will attempt the connection and will send out the email then. Is there a prebuilt solution that anyone knows that will help with these things ? If not, do you know of any ways that this might be possible to be done - even if you don't know the exact details of how it should be done - any help in finding out something like this would help . Note : Linux / Windows / FreeBSD / Solaris is fine. So whatever OS it is, it's fine by me.
