    Those look like the backup ISPConfig update makes in /var/backup.
    They can be restored like the comments in the update instructions advice.
    I am not sure that would restore e-mails to working. You can try and see.
    Do you have backups of the system and customer files, databases and e-mails if all goes haywire?

    What does command
    Code:
    mailq
    
    show?
    Do the e-mails arrive in mail folder? I do not know about your OS, but on my system those are in /var/vmail/domainname.tld/.

    My server gave me successful delivery report. So it should have arrived at server that is MX for that domain.
    Yes, that was me. I expected you would not show my e-mail address in a public forum.

    Does name service work on your host? Check with
    Code:
    host howtoforge.com
    host ispconfig.be

    yes i have just read another post that says that they are having a similar issue.
    this is the recommendations
    Solution - downgrade to Version 1.2.16

    Hi all,

    I have found the solution in order to fix this. The problem is that the lib90-... is not compatible with Version 1.2.17, so in order to solve this I installed dovecot again from rpms like this :

    PLEASE BACK UP ALL YOUR DATA LIKE dovecot.conf and dovecot-sql.conf (you might want to search and backup also dovecot.conf.rpmsave) from /etc/

    first is to stop dovecot: /etc/ini.d/dovecot stop

    remove dovecot without dependencies: rpm -e --nodeps dovecot

    cd /tmp

    download it : wget http://centos.alt.ru/pub/dovecot/1.2.16/RHEL/RPMS/x86_64/dovecot-1.2.16-1.el5.x86_64.rpm

    install from rpms : rpm -i dovecot-1.2.16-1.el5.x86_64.rpm

    then edit /etc/dovecot.conf and paste the content from the old dovecot.conf.rpmsave or dovecot.conf depending what is your previous working backup version.

    /etc/init.d/dovecot start

    Post contents of
    Code:
    /etc/postfix/main.cf
    /etc/postfix/master.cf
    
    Can you check the diff for those files to before the update?

    It could be the fault is dovecot. It should to the delivery of arriving mail to users mailbox.

    That post is from year 2011. I find it unlikely same problem still exists. And are you running CentOS 4?
    In the last post of that thread it says the problem is fixed and
    Code:
    yum upgrade dovecot-sieve
    gets the working version.
    I think first thing to do is to find out which operating system and which version you are running. Then You can consider updates and upgrades.

    Can you use diff command with old and new files? That would show how they are different.
