Handling Incoming Email Messages
Nov 12, 2008i'm wanting my users to be able to upload pictures to their accounts via email by sending the picture to a central email address (pics@mysite.com, for example).
from there, i'd like to take that incoming email and parse it how i see fit. (matching the email address to the user account, inserting the subject as the photo title, etc...)
what's the best method of handling this?
Email Messages Rejected From Certain Server?
Sep 8, 2007I was checking my emails today, and have had several that have bounced back. They all returned a message like this:
Quote:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at web1.daniel15.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.

Why would the mail from my server be rejected?
Exim Keeps Sending Thousands Of Messages To Non-valid Email.
Feb 14, 2007For 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.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Limiting Outgoing Email Messages
Aug 1, 2014Since upgrading to Plesk 12 I am experiencing a strange bug:
When enabling the limitation of outgoing email messages, is not possible to RECEIVE emails to a account that is only redirecting the email messages (to a different account which also lies on the server).
I reproduced this behavior on two different servers from which one is a complete reinstall.
The maillog will then show the following error when receiving mails to a redirecting address:
Aug 1 04:04:34 xxxxxx plesk sendmail[16709]: handlers_stderr: DATA REPLY:554:5.7.0 The message could not be sent. You are not allowed to use sendmail utility.#012REJECT
Aug 1 04:04:34 xxxxxx plesk sendmail[16709]: REJECT during call 'limit-out' handler
I can find very few information on this error message, but when disabling the limiting feature, everything works as expected.
Plesk 11.x / Linux :: Qmail Email Messages Always In Queue
Nov 17, 2014I have a server(godaddy) with plesk. It was all working well till 8 - 10 days ago. I didnt notice it one week later where I started receiving a lot of failed mail notices. Then on investigation, there were more then 50K spam mails in the mail queue and the mails that were supposed to be sent(registration, forgot password) were also held up in the queue. I found the source of the spam and fixed that.
Also I cleared the mail-queue. Now when I try to send out a test message, it still gets held up in the mail queue. But I can send a test mail to the same domain (info@mydomain.com). All new user registration mails are also held up and this is greatly affecting the site.
Email Problem--gmail Messages Go To Spam Folder And Not Inbox
Feb 25, 2008I have a problem with my server. If you send any message to any gmail account, that message will only arrive in spam/bulk folder. I tried changing subjects, and no use any message that you send only goes to the bulk folder. Ip of the server is not blocked in any know database, I checked.

LFD Messages Regarding High Load...
Jun 16, 2009I have a VPS with Future Hosting and recently I have been getting more and more notifications from LFD regarding high CPU load. For example:
Time: Sun Jun 14 06:50:48 2009 -0500
1 Min Load Avg: 9.47
5 Min Load Avg: 6.25
15 Min Load Avg: 3.68
Running/Total Processes: 2/105
I am getting at least one of these a day now and I am also getting alerts about services failing, SPAMD in particular but also EXIM (and messages about LFD being unable to determine the exim queue length). External monitors are also warning me about SMTP timeouts during the same time period that I get the "high load" errors.
Tech support seems a bit stumped by this one and ALWAYS come back with "load looks fine right now". With the frequency of the warning emails increasing I am getting very concerned about the stability of my VPS.
I am not running anything significant on my VPS yet with minimal visitors and load (RAM usage consistently stays below 300MB on a VPS with 1+GB RAM.

MSN / Hotmail Blocking Messages
Feb 13, 2007It appears that MSN / Hotmail have recently began blocking an awful lot of servers I manage. Several of them (for a company I work for) are in a few blacklists however a number of the IP addresses I manage are 100% clean.
Anyone know of something MSN/Hotmail recently began enforcing?
The blocks began at around 6 PM EST on Thursday of last week.
The error message is as follows:
Your e-mail was rejected for policy reasons on this
gateway. Reasons for rejection may be related to content such as obscene
language, graphics, or spam-like characteristics (or) other reputation
problems. For sender troubleshooting information, please go to
http://postmaster.msn.com. Please note: if you are an end-user please
contact your E-mail/Internet Service Provider for assistance.
I feel like a pawn for asking this on WHT but from what I can see
it's fairly widespread.
The domains in question do have basic SPF implemented as well.
not limited to a contact at hotmail / msn that would enjoy a phonebeating.
[smtp] 421 Too Many Messages In This Connection
Jul 10, 2007we send mailing tih php through smtp connection
All ok in the last 5 month
But now when set more than 1000 emails x sessione (any 10 minutes) we get this error:
"421 too many messages in this connection"
There aren't new configuration on exim.
So we have set 1000 emails max and lower minutes in the session (5) but there is another problem:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to mx.***.com:25 in /home/***.php on line 47

Can be too lower 5 minutes?

I see over a few hundred of these lines in /var/log/messages. The timestamp is exactly the same for every 2 lines (Proftp session- Opened and Closed). It's occuring every hour of the day. Is someone attacking the ftp daemon or something?
Exim Failed Messages
Nov 15, 2007We're on a VPS and lately we've been getting a few 'exim has failed...A restart was attempted automagicly.' messages. Support indicated that we're hitting our limits and suggested that we move to a bigger package or remove accounts. I only have 2 active sites on this account. We're new at this and don't know if there's anything else we can do.
Does anyone know what could be causing exim to fail?
Apache :: Startup Messages Do Not Appear
Jan 25, 2014I have 2.4.3 (Win-64) installed and running. When it starts up, I get a command prompt window that has messages in it, but the window closes so quickly, I can't read the messages. They don't appear in the log. I have tried to manually start the server, but when I do, the messages do not appear!
How can I get that window to stay open or where can I see those messages?

Is this any issues with the current kernel that i am running. Do I need to change the kernel version ( 2.6.17.6 )
Limit Outgoing Messages (QMail)
Nov 9, 2009We've got a dedicated server at our company that hosts several sites and email accounts. Today I noticed that in the mail queue (from Plesk) we have like 5 or 6 messages from the same customer with around 400 destination addresses for EACH one. This would be like 2000-3000 emails to be sent. It isn't spam as it's some kind of newsletter.
I don't really know how the QMail server handles this, but it's been 5 hours since some of those messages entered the queue, and they are still there, so it seems that is having some difficulty.
I don't pretend to limit the amount of emails an user can send per minute or per hour, but I would like to know if there is any way of managing the queue like, lets say, send 50 message per minute. As far as I know, the mail queue right now (by default) starts sending the messages as they come, which means it could send 1000 in a few seconds if it can handle it.
I don't even know if this would be better or worse, meaning that maybe messages could get queued when the server could handle them, so some customers would see that emails are not working instantly as they do now. It also would be good if this tool (if exists) could report the current status of the queue, saturation, etc...
We're a bit worried because a couple of days ago we had some kind of attack and our server started sending hundreds of emails with fake sender and the CPU went overloaded and the mail queue was too big.

Hotmail Will Only Accept HTML Messages
Sep 16, 2007I have noticed that hotmail will only accept HTML message from any of my servers.
Is it me or is Hotmail really a webhosters night mare.
Hundreds Of Messages In Mail Queue
Mar 10, 2007I have hundreds and hundreds of messages in mail queue waiting delivering. Log file says:
connect to remote.host[000.000.000.000]: server refused to talk to me: 421 4.7.0 remote.host Error: too many connections from my-servers-ip
delivery temporarily suspended: connect to remote.host[000.000.000.000]: Connection timed out
(I replaced real IP addresses with 000, my-servers-ip and hostname with "remote host")
It happends only with one host (the most popular free email provider in my country). All emails to yahoo, gmail etc are being delivered without any problems.
What does it mean - too many connections from my server? I have a busy dating website and php script sends out a lot of email notifications (for example - when users get new instant messages). Anyway, I never heard that email providers limit the number of emails from the same server. During the night time all messages from mail queue are being delivered, but at day time this number sometimes grows to 1000.
I have Postfix installed.
