Monitoring PHP Scripts That Send Email
Jul 25, 2007
Is anyone aware of any good tools or tips that I can use to monitor use of qmail/sendmail to generate and send email messages from PHP scripts on a web server?
I want to keep a check on sites that are sending email from the site, to make sure they are not being exploited and result in our server getting blacklisted by big service providers. I'd love a tool that would automatically block messages from an account after a certain threshold is hit.
I'm running a Plesk 8.1.1 & 8.2.0 server configuration..

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?

My company has been having some issues with our email periodically but our host provides no help other than a graph showing the amount of daily relays.
Does anyone know of a good email server montior or diagnostic solution that works with MailEnable? Preferably something free or cheap.
I basically want to be able to get in and see what emails were sent and received from who and the IPs if possible. I don't care about seeing the content of peoples emails but just a report similar to a telephone bill would surely help.

how can we monitor a mail of our staff, if he change the password.
Is there any option in cpanel/webmail to send a copy of that mail to admin.
If staff member receive or send any mail, can admin monitor it?

Does anyone know any tools or scripts that you can run to do email round trip monitoring (eg, sending and ensuring it’s received within x minutes)?
Not looking for a solution that is hosted (eg, websitepulse.com) but for something that can be run off a machine locally.

how you guys monitor your websites and how you are alerted to it going down?
I have a backup VPS which will monitor my main site, with DNSMadeEasy IP failover to the backup server. But I would like to know it just went down!
I have googled and cant find an email to pager system, so I am hoping there is a email to SMS system?

We are running an application on IIS that sends out 4-500 emails per day via a smarthost, but nearly 11,000 every weekend. None of this is bulk mail...
We need a new smarthost provider ASAP, as our current host is discontinuing this service this week, and we were just notified.

way to send up to a few thousand emails per day.
These emails are simply replies to people contacting me first then I reply with ONE message from an autoresponder. No further contact is made unless they write me back again.
This is not really something that would work with aweber, getresponse, or a similar service.
And most email service providers seem to have a limit of 250/messages a day.
I'm guessing I will need a dedicated server for this?
Anything else I need on the dedicated server? I only have a few mailbox accounts I use that I access via outlook.

I have a dedicated server with godaddy and it has squirrel mail/sendmail/dovecot etc installed on it. I am able to log-in to squirrel mail but when I try to send email, it fails. Even it's not able to receive email. I restarted sendmail but it still does not works.
I tried to send email through command line but it does not work either.

I recently moved a site from a hosting company to a VPS. I updated the name servers with the domain name registrar and the transfer went smoothly.
However one thing does have me puzzled. As I understand it (and correct me if I am wrong) my new hosting company are now the authority for my zone and should have a zone file which points my domain name at one of their IP addresses? However my previous host has a webbased email panel - if I log in to it I can still send email (but not recieve). This has confused me as I would have thought that my new ISP would have a zone file with an MX record for my email? How is this possible?

I want to notify my user base of downtime due to site maintenance.
I don't think my host 1AND1 would be too happy if I used their mail servers to send over 50,000 emails.
What do you guys recommend? Sending a few thousand emails a day for a month? Are there any services dedicated to sending emails in bulk?

if i try to telnet to yahoo's mail server, i get this:
[root: #] telnet mx1.mail.yahoo.com 25
Trying 4.79.181.14...
telnet: connect to address 4.79.181.14: Connection timed out
Trying 4.79.181.15...
telnet: connect to address 4.79.181.15: No route to host
Trying 67.28.113.11...
telnet: connect to address 67.28.113.11: No route to host
Trying 67.28.113.10...
telnet: connect to address 67.28.113.10: No route to host
but it works from one of my other hosted servers.
this keeps mail building up in my queue as it cannot send mail out cause the connection times out.
I can telnet locally to send myself email. This is my own dedicated server.
i have no idea whats up - default policy is ACCEPT in the OUTPUT chain of iptables.

@A **serverip**3600
ftpA **serverip**3600
wwwA **serverip**3600
*A **serverip**3600
I can send and receive, but no emails arrive, probably because the registrar has a resolve issue?
Site is also down.

It appears Comcast is now blocking port 25. As a result, I can't sent outbound email via my dedicated server. They had me change to port 587 for my comast email account, but that doesn't solve my not being able to send outbound from my dedicated server.
Is there anythighn I can do (like change the post my mail server uses to 587) so that I can send outbound mail from my server with outlook (over Comcast connection) or am I just stuck now with using web mail?

Here is what happened:
We have been running our web/ftp/application/mail server for about 4 years, and running flawlessly. This week one of the computers in the network was infected with a virus that was sending spam like crazy. We got blacklisted, as per this site mxtoolbox.com. Our domain is affordablerto.net. Since then we have isolated the problem, klilled the virus and are no longer blacklisted. But we are not able to send or receive any emails now. I wrote mxtoolbox and there reply was basicly "We can get you up and running if you pay us". I called our ISP and they stated that the ports(25) are open. When I do an smtp diagnostic from mxtoolbox I get the response that Argument 'Length' must be greater or equal to zero.
When I go to dnsreport and input our mail server (mail.affordablerto.net) I get ERROR:
The parent servers say that the domain mail.affordablerto.net does not have any NS records (although they may have some other information on that zone).
When I put in our mail server under mail test I get this Getting MX record for mail.affordablerto.net (from local DNS server, may be cached)... There is no MX record for mail.affordablerto.net! That's bad. Checking for an A record... Got it!
When I put in our domain I get this...well I can not put a link in yet - the software here says I need to take 5 posts before I can link anything. Go ahead and try it yourself.
I am not sure what most of this information means. I am in contact with our DNS provider and they keep on trying to sell me some solution. So does mxtoolbox.
I don't know what to do.

suppose my domain is mydomain.com, my sendmail may send email to any domain name except local domain, say, sendmail may send email to hotmail, yahoo or any other domain name, but when send email to emailbox under mydomain.com, sendmail log will say domain not found.
My situation is my server does not have DNS service, my DNS service is outsourced, and MX record also is outsourced.
