This is my first time emailing to the list. I have searched around for solutions. I apologize if this does not follow any standard procedures.
Here is my configuration: Exim4 Cygwin Windows XP AT&T DSL (SBC) For several months I had my mail server working fine. Near the end of last week I discovered that Exim was no longer receiving email but could still send mail out. I don't recall changing any configuration settings which would leads me to believe it is something out of my hands, but I want to try to narrow down where the connection is broken and go from there. My exim_main.log traditionally would update any time an email received. Currently, nothing is being appended to that or any other log when I try to send an email to the server. I am hosting a few domains: karuza.com, list2text.com, and bhhsdrumline.com which can all still be viewed with regards to Apache and HTTP so I don't think it is a domain direction problem. I spoke with AT&T support chat three times yesterday. They have no understanding of mail servers and Exim. They are used to problems with Outlook and webmail, so getting them to help is an issue but I am thinking it's either something they did without notifying me or somehow services are not set up right on my server now. I have exim using SMTP on port 25 to send mail. I have inetd set up to listen on pop and imap ports as per the tutorial here: http://pigtail.net/LRP/exim/exim-cygwin.html For the most part, my server is set up to forward emails received for the domain names to other email services like gmail. Some of it is used to take the email and use it in a script and generate response to users of list2text. My friend suggested I try sending an email from exim to local host so I attempted the following (Karuza is the admin user account): echo -e 'Subject: Testr\nOi' | exim [EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED] which resulted in: 2007-07-11 09:10:48 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] U=Karuza P=local S=273 2007-07-11 09:10:55 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L mail.sbcglobal.net [207.115.36.24] Connection refused 2007-07-11 09:10:55 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp defer (111): Connection refused 2007-07-11 09:10:55 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp defer (111): Connection refused 2007-07-11 09:23:24 Start queue run: pid=4788 2007-07-11 09:23:24 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp defer (-53): retry time not reached for any host 2007-07-11 09:23:24 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp defer (-53): retry time not reached for any host 2007-07-11 09:23:24 End queue run: pid=4788 2007-07-11 09:38:24 Start queue run: pid=4620 2007-07-11 09:39:01 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L => [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp H=mail.sbcglobal.net [207.115.36.24] 2007-07-11 09:39:01 JL0VM0-0004FK-1L ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smart_route T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:: host mail.sbcglobal.net [207.115.36.24]: 550 5.1.1 ...
