mail problem
 
I changed my dns zone on server #1 to point to server #2 and it propgated fine, long ago (first I did a whm copy account from old server to new).

Now I'm not getting any incoming mails yet all the email accounts are there anyway.

The cname entry for mail is pointing to the new server (IP) as is cname for www and A entry for domain. This is propagated fine but not sure why mail is not coming in but works outgoing.

Also, mx entry points to the domain itself too as it should

How can I fix this issue?

my dns zone on server #1 pointing to server # is propagated long ago and this is what I have

domain NS ns1.domain.com
domain NS ns2.domain.com
localhost.domain.com A entry domain.com
domain A entry pointing to server #2
domain mx 0 domain
mail cname domain
www cname domain
ftp A entry pointing to server #2

TTL's are all 14400


Also, dnsreport was fine and dnsstuff the same. I can send outgoing but incoming nothing. Logs don't show anything incoming , and mail queue in WHM shows nothing either. Also, spam assassin is off, no filters, no fowards, no mx entry changes

mail not working only for one domian?
 
I have about 15 domains on one server and only one of them has an issue with emails going out/coming in. The dns is fine, domain itself works fine, no email forwarders, filters, mx changes, spam assassin is off. Also, checked webmail (horde), nothing.

/var/log/exim_mainlog shows this

2005-01-03 16:20:31 1ClaYx-0000hD-GX <= user@domain.com H=(mta4.srv.hcvlny.cv.net) [167.206.5.70] P=esmtp S=2824 id=0I9R00L1GI25MU@mta4.srv.hcvlny.cv.net
2005-01-03 16:20:31 1ClaYx-0000hD-GX => /dev/null <user@domain.com> R=central_filter T=**bypassed**
2005-01-03 16:20:31 1ClaYx-0000hD-GX Completed

Is this good "bypass"? Not too familiar with the logs.

Steps:
/scripts/exim4
/scripts/updatenow
/scripts/upcp --force

I even deleted the zone, readded it again for sake of it.

Specs:
centos 3.3
cpanel 9.9.9c66

How can I correct this matter?

unrouteable mail delivery
 
I am having more mail problems than USPS, FEDEX, UPS put together LOL (joking)

Anyway, for every outgoing mail from my billing system ModernBill I'm getting this error (but it seems to be server side not internally in the software)

This is an example:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

user@yahoo.com
unrouteable mail domain "yahoo.com"

------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------

Return-path: <sales@mydomain.com>
Received: from nobody by server.mydomain.com with local (Exim 4.43)
id 1CldbA-0000BT-6F; Mon, 03 Jan 2005 20:35:00 -0500
To: "Customer" <email@yahoo.com>
Subject: My Company :: Payment Reminder
MIME-Version: 1.0
From: sales@mydomain.com
X-Priority: 3
X-Mailer: ModernBill
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="=_3bb3694ed525869bf90bbc1dbb0e9679"
Message-ID: <i9rr2c.ar0393@mydomain.com>
Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 20:35:00 -0500

--=_3bb3694ed525869bf90bbc1dbb0e9679
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

This is happening to all domains regardless yahoo, msn, hotmail, gmail or non-free accounts. It is server wide from my expereince.

I have cPanel/WHM. In WHM's tweak settings, I have max emails per domain per hour set to 0 (default unlimited). I have "pop3 prevent floood..." off, "prevent user nobody from sending ...." off.
Spam assassin is off too. What else?

specs:
centos 3.3
cpanel 9.9.9 r-14
exim 4.3.4

Please do not create new threads on the same ongoing discussion or topic you create. This is against our rules and keeping your ongoing updates in one thread make it easier for others to have the full information your providing to help, etc.

Review our rules, you should be aware of them since you agreed to them when registering and have been warned of this before: http://www.linuxquestions.org/rules.php

These are all seperate issues my friend. Pay attention to each one and you will see they have nothing to do with each other

No, actually they don't. If you have a problem with email, one problem can lead to the other. If your actually solving the issues and then posting a new problem, its good to know what you asked previously, the solution and then the new problem. And if you do find a solution without anyone responding, you should post the solution so others that might have a similar issue that are searching, may find it.

But basically when I see 3 threads by you that basically say "email issues" in the past 2 days, I think they should all go in the same thread to update anyone who reads your threads and might have a solution to your posted problems.

If you don't like my actions as a moderator, take it up privately or with the site admin!

awww getting defensive now?

These "email issues" are seperate from each other, different servers. That did not occur to you. If I had the solution I'd post it kindly so without getting defensive my little brethren

chadi,

Seriously, you've been warned before. Dont make me close yet another thread. I'm not getting defensive, I'm simply stating if you don't like the moderation done on your threads, take it up privately or with the site admin.. and not publicly. Review the rules once again.
