Hello All,
Due to stupidity, i did 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config by following one tutorial without further reading/research. And now i can't login to any mail account.

Beside standard vesta setup, i'm using afterlogic instead of roundcube (love its style better, cleaner and more compact)

For information:
1. I'm running a vps, with vesta (apache, nginx, exim4, dovecot, spamassasin, bind9, clamav,vsftpd, iptables and fail2ban).. In this vps i'm hosting several domain (the websites are running fine and smooth on each domain).
2. I have several email accounts that is used, so i really hope that i will not loose its content


Can anybody kindly help me to reconfigure/re-setup the exim4? What to coose during dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config and what other things to edit and modify so i can send and receive email (including sending/receiving from gmail, hotmail etc)

Thank you in advance!

You can look in the install script how vestaCP is installing Exim. You can try to copy the Exim part and execute the steps manually.

Sorry for the late reply
Did you mean i need to copy (and modify) from the folder vesta/install/ubuntu/14.04/exim/ ?

Thank you in advance
