need help with mail
 

I was getting mail (logwatch and fail2ban messages) from my server to a yahoo account but since Monday I am not. Is this a rule they put in affect?

Mind you have made NO changes to this server for months. It was working just fine.

So I dont understand i was just sending a txt file

I managed to get mail to my other domain but I see this in logwatch...

I have this in /etc/aliases so it should go back to root .. ahhhh but it wont cuz its fwd to my account thusly creating a loop...
I thnk a light came on on this particular error...
# Basic system aliases -- these MUST be present
MAILER-DAEMON: postmaster
postmaster: root

Bu this raises another question. It is not fwd to the good addr I have int he .forward. I have entries and its not in the queue just dissappears.. More questions than answers I am afraid

SEVERE ERRORS
-------------

System Error Messages:
savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere: 1 Time(s)

Lost Queue Files:
./qfo1N92BVd032749: savemail panic

Total SEVERE ERRORS: 2

Where is it trying to save the mail to? Should it not go to deadletter?


I still see this in my queue:

mailq

myid@yahoo.com
Total requests: 1

Well i got my logwatch to another account so this must be a yahoo thing.

I am guessing there is some info in the message that matches one of their rules thus dropping the mail.

the fail2ban messages come out fine to the yahoo account. Only the logwatch stopped working.
