omon : Please wait ...omon : [OM 4826] Can't abort process 15545 of

omon : [OM 4826] Can't abort process 15547 of

Now it is disabled:

Update:

When I do

service scalix stop
service exim stop
service sendmail stop
service courier-imap stop
(some of those are probably redundant, but so be it)
and then finally
service scalix start

Then I do not have SMTP Relay disabled.

However, I am still unable to send/receive outside mail.

Can you post the output of:

lsof -i:25

Thanks,

I do not know exim at all, so I may be completely wrong here.

I believe that exim has a "sendmail compatibility" mode where it can look to the system exactly like a sendmail machine, though it uses exim's own configs internally and not sendmail's.

I would suggest you uninstall exim and sendmail completely (probably by removing the RPM you installed it with), then install sendmail from your distribution install CD's (remember to include sendmail-cf). Then run omsendin and try to see if Scalix plays better with that combination.

For my solution, please see viewtopic.php?p=36836#36836

Alright... get rid of exim. Do an "yum uninstall exim" or the equivalent you have on your system. THEN, do a "yum install sendmail sendmail-cf".

exim is not only supported, most people who use a system with it have more problems than they can help. So just get rid of exim! It places symlinks / hardlinks to imitate sendmail, thus the sendmail command is "there" when in reality it is exim. So just get rid of exim completely, then put the real sendmail on and reconfigure sendmail.


good luck
