This was working previously but now I'm unable to send mails. The maillog has the following error.... sendmail[1670]: tAGCU26r001670: localhost [127.0.0.1] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA Any idea where I can start looking to fix this?

yes, that's the only error. Every time I try send a message I get three entries in the log....

actually, spoke too soon. I still can't send mails. But I'm no longer getting any error messages in maillog
The error message shows sendmail and sendmail is not used nor suported by ispconfig. Restart postfix and check if you get any errrs about postfix restart on the shell or in the log.
