I didn't do any changes, came in to the office this morning andf no e-mails are being delivered. However, no e-mails are being bounced nither. I don't know what to do now.... doesn't seem like there are errors and yet nothing is being delivered, please help postfix mbox and I followed the perfect setup guide to a T for fedora core 4 so thats how my system is setup.
Postfix config Can you copy some of your log files in here, preferably your postfix, and from restart of postfix to up and running... Can you also so a netstat -ant and copy in the contents?
Okay it looks like its not just my mail. Mail gets delivered just a few hours later. For some reason, the entire machine has started to slow down today. I attempted to login via ssh and the username & password came up pretty quick but then it took a few seconds to get the command line to appear. So I decided to logon to the machine its self and same thing. Websites on the server are running slow remotly, just everything has kinda crapped out. Any help would be great... customers are about to kill me ehhh Heres the command top output PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 6069 web43_ad 16 0 23432 20m 2552 S 33.6 1.4 0:01.01 spamassassin 4631 postfix 16 0 21688 17m 1432 D 1.0 1.1 0:11.36 qmgr 463 root 15 0 0 0 0 D 0.7 0.0 0:06.46 kjournald 4624 root 16 0 5660 1636 1352 S 0.7 0.1 0:05.25 master 5970 postfix 16 0 5796 2060 1724 D 0.7 0.1 0:00.10 local 5995 postfix 15 0 5796 2048 1724 S 0.7 0.1 0:00.07 local

[root@fc4 incoming]# postsuper -r ALL postsuper: Requeued: 170751 messages ??? Is that high of a number normal when you host about 20 sites with only a few e-mail accounts? Doesn't seem right to me... ahhh where is everyone... need help. Need to figure out how to make the server move these messages faster
tried to reinstall ispconfig thinking it might reconfigure something and then it crashed through install. Now when I start I get Executing /etc/rc.d/init.d/ispconfig_server start .. Starting ISPConfig system... /etc/rc.d/init.d/ispconfig_server: line 45: /root/ispconfig/httpd/bin/apachectl: No such file or directory /etc/rc.d/init.d/ispconfig_server: line 47: /root/ispconfig/php/php: No such file or directory FreshClam is already running! ISPConfig system is now up and running! though its not really running. When I go to reinstall its acting like a fresh install rather than an upgrade now.... is there a way to get this to install as a upgrade again and get my system back online... . ahhh everything is a mess
It seems as if your system is abused by spammers. Make sure you're not an open relay. Your problem has nothing to do with ISPConfig... Please check the /tmp directory. There should be backups of your last working ISPConfig installation (a tar.gz of /root/ispconfig, a tar.gz of /home/admispconfig, and an SQL dump of the ISPConfig database).
Thank you so much for helping me get the ispconfig control panel back up and running. It also started my httpd which wouldn't start. Thats GREAT! However, I am looking in to the e-mail problem, I followed the guide to a perfect setup but when I attempt to telnet in I run the ehlo localhost command and I get: 500 Error: bad syntax Any ideas? Also is there a command to make the e-mails process at a faster rate? Thank you so much for your help

Is there anyone willing to login to my server and see if they can get postfix running correctly? I would appriciate it sooo much.. I don't think I can handle these customers much longer. I see nothing in queue yet mail won't deliver for hours later... when i went in to the directory I see loss of files in the queue folders. and today mail started bouncing again and I think smtp stopped.... ehhh I reinstalled postfix and still bouncing but I got a ehlo reply thats good Trying 127.0.0.1...

Problem Fixed: After look through this server one other person had the same error as I did but different issue. I was able to look at his config and notied I a missing a lot of things. I added virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases To my config which started accepting mail. But I think I am still missing things. I know things are working now but I don't want to get errors in the future.

That link is very slow. What's the output of Code: postconf -d|grep mynetworks and Code: postconf -n|grep mynetworks ?
[root@fc4 ~]# postconf -d|grep mynetworks mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 66.214.254.16/29 mynetworks_style = subnet parent_domain_matches_subdomains = debug_peer_list,fast_flush_domains,mynetworks,permit_mx_backup_networks,qmqpd_authorized_clients,relay_domains,smtpd_access_maps proxy_read_maps = $local_recipient_maps $mydestination $virtual_alias_maps $virtual_alias_domains $virtual_mailbox_maps $virtual_mailbox_domains $relay_recipient_maps $relay_domains $canonical_maps $sender_canonical_maps $recipient_canonical_maps $relocated_maps $transport_maps $mynetworks smtpd_client_event_limit_exceptions = ${smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions:$mynetworks} smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination [root@fc4 ~]# postconf -n|grep mynetworks smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination
This setting allows the 66.214.254.16/29 subnet to send emails without authentication. Most probably your server is abused by spammers from this subnet. Please run Code: postconf -e 'mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8' and restart Postfix. Then only localhost can send without authentication.
