Scalix Forums

I have just upgraded to 11.0.1GA. Have noticed that if I send a mail from SWA the mail goes straight into my drafts folder and does not actually get sent. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, is there a workaround or fix?

Please take a look at the FAQs posted at the top of each forum.

Cheers

Dave

I have a very similar problem (email does not get sent - it gets put into the drafts folder) and have read the Scalix Wiki FAQs that are linked to in the above mentioned post (viewtopic.php?t=5653), however there does not seem to be a resolution to the problem on that page.

Searching the forum turned up this thread:
viewtopic.php?t=5145 which does not resolve the issue.


Here is the error message I get.
/var/opt/scalix/ml/tomcat/logs/catalina.out

Hi - please do the following and post your results for me:

lsof -i:25

lsof -i:587

/var/log/maillog


/var/logs/messages


Sendmail used to handle sending and recieving before upgrade and is supposed to still do so now.

Do the following for me, please:

1) Edit the /var/opt/scalix/??/s/sys/smtpd.cfg. Under the following

EXTENSIONS=AUTH,DSN,8BITMIME

add

# Uncomment the following lines to enable the Submission and LMTP listeners
SMTP=OFF
SUBMIT=ON
#LMTP=ON

Make sure the following is at the bottom of the file:

[SUBMIT]
LISTEN=<servername>:587
# Reject all anonymous connections
ANONYMOUS Log_Reject ALL

# The following group sets the configuration for the lmtp listener
# This listener is only active if LMTP=ON is above
[LMTP]
LISTEN=localhost:24
# Use the following line to listen on a unix domain socket
#LISTEN=~/tmp/lmtp.unix

2) omsetsvc -a smtpd y

3) omon -w smtpd

4) omstat -s

Make sure the SMTP Relay is started

5) Edit /var/opt/scalix/??/webmail/swa.properties

Change swa.email.smtpServer to read

swa.email.smtpServer=<hostname>:587

6) /etc/init.d/scalix-tomcat stop

Wait for tomcat to shut down (ps ax | grep java won't list an instance for you

7) /etc/init.d/scalix-tomcat start

Hi Warlock, that worked like a charm, thank you very much.

I have made the changes you posted in your last post to my configuration but I still have the same problem.

When I send an email from webamil, it goes straight to drafts.

Please help

Hi jacquesvdm,

I did come right. I will repost my config files for you to have a look at.

submit some of your config files so that I can compare them, make sure that your /etc/hosts file is setup correctly. This is very important.

Make sure that your servername in /var/opt/scalix/ml/s/sys/smtpd.cfg is setup correctly.

Mine looks like this:



My /var/opt/scalix/ml/webmail/swa.properties file has got the followin config set to access the server





Also do the following to start the SMTP Relay service







If you can post the same config files as the previous posts that would help a bit.

Let me know if you come right. [/code]

Hi...
In my case I had the same error and the solution posted here works for me fine, but with another additional setting in /etc/mail/sendmail.conf (Debian)

Change there the line

QUEUE_MODE="${DAEMON_MODE}";

to

QUEUE_MODE="none";â€
