Does anyone know why the mail server is now rejecting all connects from localhost. My website extensively use the php mail() function. Mail is being rejected since I updated. Any thoughts please? line from the mail error log: Apr 27 17:40:41 ns0 postfix/smtp[16452]: 246F27349EB: to=, relay=none, delay=0.07, delays=0.06/0/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
Yes, you are right amavisd is not running. Followed solution as per http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34455&page=3 Needed to run sa-update to fix error in maillog. /etc/init.d/amavisd restart has an error on stop, instead of OK I get Failed.
I am now getting: amavis[11808]: (11808-01-12) (!!)WARN: all primary virus scanners failed, considering backups Any thoughts?
mail() does not work to localhost Fixing the error with postfix and amavisd allowed clamd to properly start. Mail is now coming in and the backlog of mail is being processed. Now mail() does not work to localhost.
if you look at this link: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34455&page=3 and go to post 22, I changed in main.cf of postfix: maildrop unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=vmail argv=/usr/bin/maildrop -d ${recipient} ${extension} ${recipient} ${user} ${nexthop} ${sender} to: maildrop unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=vmail argv=/usr/bin/maildrop -d vmail ${extension} ${recipient} ${user} ${nexthop} ${sender} Also I ran as-update (an error in /var/log/maillog postfix startup suggested that I run it) Once run then the error disappeared and the server started processing the back logged mail. This is good but I cannot seem to mail() to localhost. This is the next problem that I need to resolve. This appears to be the message that is sitting in the /var/spool/mail for the domain. Does anyone know why this is messed up?
