Problem with sending emails

Postby quacka » Mon Mar 26, 2007 9:30 am

Hi,

All my emails are not sending. I get this in system email logs
Mar 26 23:13:27 mail sendmail[12180]: l2KMRUUj023363: to=root, delay=21:38:47, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=781274, dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: local mailer (/usr/bin/procmail) exited with EX_TEMPFAIL

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks

The error message you posted refers to a problem delivering mail to root on your Scalix box. This could be due to permission problems, disk space/quotas - what does the output of:

Code: Select all

df -h


show?

In any case you should alias root to the admin's address (presumably you) - make the necessary entry in /etc/aliases, eg:

Code: Select all

root: foo@domain.com


& run:

Code: Select all

newaliases -v

Yeah I found out it is full.
Thank you for that I will alias it.
Can I delete the root email box after alias?

Yes, if you're sure there's nothing of value within.
