    Hello,

    I just started with ispconfig and was up and running. I installed the webmail.

    But now I am receivin thousands of email with
    subject:Mailsize web1_user

    and the message is : 806

    The server must be in a loop of some kind.
    Can someone help me???

    Have you add an email forward for the user adm42go to another account? Please remove this forward or alias!

    What's in /etc/aliases and /home/admispconfig/.procmailrc?

    Please remove the catchall address to break the loop.

    Then check that you have not configured a website (www.domain.nl or domain.nl) that is identical with your main server host (domain.nl).

    Update:

    Please have a look at this FAQ item:

    In the /home/admispconfig/.procmailrc file is:


    SHELL=/bin/sh

    USERNAME=`formail -xSubject: | awk '{print $2}'`

    :0
    * ^Subject:.*Mailsize:*
    {
    :0
    | formail -I "" | sed -e '/^$/d' >> /home/admispconfig/mailstats/${USERNAME}


    In the /etc/aliases is:

    # Aliases in this file will NOT be expanded in the header from
    # Mail, but WILL be visible over networks or from /bin/mail.
    #
    # >>>>>>>>>> The program "newaliases" must be run after

    @till

    I removed this user, but now I can't put him back.

    All is okay for the rest.
    The new mail works fine now.

    Should I change: # Person who should get root's mail
    #root: marc
    Into another user in /etc/aliases ?

    No, if user marc exists as system user this is OK. Also this is commented out at the moment and so the emails for root are not send to the user marc.

    Did you have a look at the FAQ link? Is $mydomain in your postfix main.cf set to domain.nl?
