Send an email to webmin developer and scold him for such feature that cause system error. Technically, this is removing an email from the system without informing the sender that mail was deleted. A correct setup should mark this message as failure and generate a bounce mail back to the sender and inform him about this failure.

Webmin is purposely causing a lost email, unbelievable!

Maybe there is no connection for retrieving emails? Otherwise, it maybe related with permission of the log directory.

Maybe a better solution to pipe the output to tail, so you can minimize the amount lines to read?

Code:

(Read last 50 lines)
$> tai64nlocal < /var/log/qmail/current | tail -50

You can also use head to read start of the logs.

when i try to send my email out, this error appear in outlook :-

The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'matpau_83@yahoo.com'. Subject 'test', Account: 'test', Server: '60.48.118.48', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

i've already add the ip address to the tcp.smtp files. is this a relay client problem ?? the ip is dynamic by the way. any ideas how to resolve this issue ?

Did you run 'qmailctl cdb'? This should read the tcp.smtp file and save the rules into tcp.smtp.cdb.

When you say it IP is dynamic, you are referring to the system that sending the email (via outlook) or the system that runs qmail?

i've already did qmailctl cdb right after i edit the tcp.smtp files. the system that is running the qmail is using dynamic ip. i point my purchase dns to my modem router at world wide dns. so, everytime i restart my router(automatically will change a new dynamic ip), i configure the new ip the the purchase dns. question, is it a pratice to setup qmail with a static ip or you dynamic ip ?? which one is commonly use??

I think you misunderstood the purpose of tcp.smtp. I suggest read the online document about it.

qmail does not care what IP the system has been set. In fact, if you look carefully, it is the tcpserver that handles the TCP port 25.

i've change my dns name to something else......
now the error that i'm receiving is
