Unable to send emails

[Ocrion]

Hello!

I've encountered a new error while testing around the CP, I've noticed that I'm unable to send emails, receiving emails works just fine.

I've changed in the config file to use port 436 (Or what ever the port was I don't remember) and I've made sure that both 25 and 4xx is portforwarded.
Any tips?

Regards.

Have you tried webmail? Does it work?

Exim is listening on following ports

daemon_smtp_ports = 25 : 465 : 587 : 2525

Try to ping each port using telnet and see if firewall allows external connections.

Yes, I tried the Webmail, it's able to receive emails but not send emails.

Today I got this in the inbox:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent has not yet been delivered to one or more of its
recipients after more than 24 hours on the queue on GLaDOS-Server.

The message identifier is: 1VgEgW-0000lv-PP
The subject of the message is: Test
The date of the message is: Tue, 12 Nov 2013 15:11:16 +0100

The address to which the message has not yet been delivered is:

***************@aol.com
Delay reason: SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
host mailin-02.mx.aol.com [205.188.155.110]: 421 4.2.1 :
(DNS:NR) http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/421dnsnr.html

No action is required on your part. Delivery attempts will continue for
some time, and this warning may be repeated at intervals if the message
remains undelivered. Eventually the mail delivery software will give up,
and when that happens, the message will be returned to you.

I tried the telnet but I dunno really how to use it so it might have some impact on the results:

root@GLaDOS-Server:~# telnet ******.com 465
Trying 62.63.***.***...
Connected to ******.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

root@GLaDOS-Server:~# telnet ******.com 25
Trying 62.63.***.***...
Connected to ******.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 GLaDOS-Server ESMTP Exim 4.80 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 11:06:45 +0100
421 GLaDOS-Server: SMTP command timeout - closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.

And then same result with the two other ports. However on http://www.canyouseeme.org/ I am able to successfully ping all of them.

It looks like the problem is in hostname. Try to give it a pingable name. Like

Code: Select all

hostname test.vestacp.com
service exim restart

Use your domain name of course.

I'm also having this problem it worked fine since Nov but now all of a sudden it doesn't work
I'm using CSF as my fire wall.

i just disabled CFS and it still isn't working so i dono whats going i can I have send email only to domains listed on vesta but not to any external domains like google hotmail or any other website that is not local

[misak35]

Maybe you are blocked by google , hotmail ect. Try to ask your service provider about that. Im sure they can unblock IPs.

I checked if i was and im not, i noticed this morning that when i rebooted with CSF off all the email went out so it must be CSF. When i enabled it and rebooted i couldn't send emails.

OK i fixed the issue... in /etc/csf/csf.conf change SMTP_BLOCK = "1" to SMTP_BLOCK = "0", i think maybe CSF out the box isn't 100% compatible with Vesta since Vesta uses other names for apps. for instance:

Code: Select all

in /etc/csf/csf.pignore

Vesta Default
exe:/usr/libexec/dovecot/auth
exe:/usr/libexec/dovecot/anvil

exe:/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login
exe:/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap
exe:/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login

They are named differently
