    I followed this guide for setting up ISPconfig 3
    http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-5.3-x86_64-ispconfig-3

    all is working fine, but when i wanted to work with e-mail i run into a problem.
    Webmail interface is working fine, but after sending mail, it goes to the sent-mail box, but nothing is ever delivered.

    I the mail que i find hundreds of entries like this:
    Code:
    -Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------

    [email protected] shows in the real log my private e-mail, i used for testing.

    Mail log is completly empty
    Mail-warn log is empty.

    I have no clue about what is wrong, or where to start looking, i'v searched over the internet, but most problems with mail show errors in the maillog file. It seems nothing is happening.

    The services are started correctly, and with update script refreshed.

    Code:
    Server: apollo.youngwebsolutions.info
    State: ok
    0 unknown | 0 info | 0 warning | 0 critical | 0 error
    
    ok:
    The state of your Hard-Disk space is ok [More...]
    Your Virus-protection is ok [More...]
    Your Mailq load is ok [More...]
    Your Server load is ok [More...]
    All needed Services are online [More...]
    The System-Log is O.K. [More...]
    
    Code:
    Web-Server:  	Online
    FTP-Server: 	Online
    SMTP-Server: 	Online
    POP3-Server: 	Online
    IMAP-Server: 	Online
    myDNS-Server: 	Online
    mySQL-Server: 	Online
    any hints are welcome!

    when i go to /var/log/maillog it is completly empty, same goes voor maillog.1 maillog.2 maillog.3 etc
    mysqld.log does show entries, so i assume this is the correct location?

    Are you sending your emails as root?
    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ?
    Did oyu disable SELinux?

    i would try postsuper -r ALL to just try recue all mail

    as for log, well dunno how come it's all empty...

    /var/log/maillog is 0 bytes, and date is from today, so it is empty for sure!

    I went one more time to my installation notices i made, and only error i found was with this instrucion:
    Code:
    mysqladmin -u root password yourrootsqlpassword
    mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root password yourrootsqlpassword
    the second instruction gave an error and i continued with the set-up and made a note of this.. Could this be of any reason?
    error:
    Code:
    [root@apollo log]#mysqladmin -h apollo.youngwebsolutions.info -u root password sql.starts
    mysqladmin: connect to server at 'apollo.youngwebsolutions.info' failed
    error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'apollo.youngwebsolutions.info' (using password: NO)'
    [root@apollo log]
    
    The first instruction to set the sql password worked fine, and i can login to PhpMyAdmin with the password and ISPconfig seems to work also with it..

    i had problem with second command also and in the end didn't even matter...so don't think that is the problem.

    Also take a look at /etc/syslog.conf file and see where your mail is loged at

    Should be like this

    # Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.
    # Don't log private authentication messages!
    *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages


    # Log all the mail messages in one place.
    mail.* -/var/log/maillog

    here is content of syslog file, seems to me all is perfect...

    Code:
    # Log all kernel messages to the console.
    # Logging much else clutters up the screen.
    #kern.*                                                 /dev/console
    
    # Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.
    # Don't log private authentication messages!
    *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none                /var/log/messages
    
    # The authpriv file has restricted access.
    authpriv.*                                              /var/log/secure
    
    # Log all the mail messages in one place.
    mail.*                                                  -/var/log/maillog
    
    
    # Log cron stuff
    cron.*                                                  /var/log/cron
    
    # Everybody gets emergency messages
    *.emerg                                                 *

    This means that MySQL is using another hostname. Take a look at chapter 8 on http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_server_opensuse10.3_p4 , starting with "As you've seen in the netstat output, MySQL is not only listening on localhost, but on all interfaces, which means it can be accessed from the outside."

    Ok, found an important clue in this subject (I think!)

    Although ISPconfig tells me that smtp server is online (see first post) I cannot telnet port 25.
    It times out on the external host
    It times out on localhost (when i first SSH to the server and from there telnet to port 25)

    Combined with the fact the log file of the mailserver is empty this is probably the cause of the problem.

    Questions that remain:
    - why is ISPconfig telling me the SMTP server is online
    - how to proceed with the error?

    Any errors in your mail log?
    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ?

    see my first post of this treat. The maillog file is totally empty, indicating something is wrong?!

    output of netstat is as follows:

    In a retry i was able to telnet to port 25, but i got nothing 'normal' like a helo message, just an escape message:
    Code:
    [root@apollo ~]#telnet localhost 25
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    
    This is not wat i suspect when telnetting to a mailserver!

    And there's still nothing in your mail log?
    What's the output of
    Code:
    ls -la /var/log/
    ?

    a log rotation file is created every week, but the size stays zero, so nothing is logged in my opion. File is really empty, when opening with VI it's an empty file.
