Brad,
What did you try to 'fix'??? And what did you change in the IMail
configuration? I think you did something that is stopping delivery, with
that many files in \spool, especially, if this is not typical for your
system.
DNS is a good possibility, too, but coincidental to your working on IMail,
would be the second thing I'd check.
Hmmm, here is DNS info and a telnet session (* marks a comment!) to your
host:
220 X1 NT-ESMTP Server travis.fastraxs.net (IMail 6.06 497-1)
vrfy root
550 unknown user <root> *unusual as IMail creates root on each domain!
vrfy nobody
550 unknown user <nobody> *Good!
vrfy postmaster
250 ok its for <postmaster> *Good
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *some domain or alias of this name, good,
but where???
vrfy root
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *The name used in MX (and a domain in
IMail?) but not this domain! Could be another alias, though....
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
550 unknown user <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *Just to be sure <root> alone is
this domain being checked. Confirms above.
vrfy brad
250 ok its for <brad>
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
vrfy [EMAIL PROTECTED]
250 ok its for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * brad exists in several domains,
shared Top Directories in multiple *.fastraxs.net domains!? Or multiple
accounts in several domains, cannot tell which!
FasTraxs.net.
nameserver = NS2.N2ITIV.NET.
nameserver = NS1.N2ITIV.NET.
0, coe.FasTraxs.net.
63.121.75.4
No PTR
No A for: travis.fastraxs.net
Conclusion:
Your configuration of IMail and the hostnames used and maybe TCPIP
configuration might be simplified!! Probable HOSTS file data not correct. If
you 'added' a domain to IMail recently, that may have been a mistake.
Do you really need multiple domains with 'fastraxs.net' in them? What are
you 'trying' to do??
