Hello the List!
All outbound mail from one of the qmailtoasters I've installed and
manage is getting deferred.

I used qtp-newmodel to upgrade this server earlier since clamav
was eating up all cpu time and essentially made the server fail.
The only minor problem I had doing the upgrade was I had to update
a few packages manually.
After the upgrade it seemed to work without problem.
But over the last few days I have this problem.
Inbound mail does not seem to have a problem
This is the current output of qtp-whatami
"qtp-whatami v0.2.3
DISTRO=CentOS
OSVER=4.5
ARCH=i686
BUILD_DIST=cnt40
BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat
This machine's OS is supported, but this version/arch has not been
tested"
In researching the list for info I thought perhaps the SPF setting
was causing the problem and tried setting up an SPF record for the
server.
I have since removed the same and also set the spfbehavior
settings to 1 from 3
In spite of these changes all outbound mail is getting deferred.
All help appreciated

If you tell us the IP/hostname of your server, we can look it up in
the spam databases to see if you've been listed.
Ultimately, the deferral is on the other server which may not be
your problem.
Mr. Vickers,
Thank you for you lightening reply.
I am sorry I did not mention it earlier.
But that was one of the immediate things I did upon the problem.
I checked the CBL as well as well as
http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx and this particular server is
not listed.
The IP of this server is not a NAT for any private network either.
I am also sorry to say that I cannot break trust by giving out the
IP/HOSTNAME of the server.
If I may, I provide a obfuscated screen shot of the CBL check.
mailserver_cbl_obfu.png as per attachment.
The SuperTool list is long and I will not be able to provide a complete
screenshot though I can assure you that the server or its IP does not
appear there either.
From what you say I think a thorough check of the settings is probably
needed due the upgrade
I would be happy to hear from you in case you can tell me off any other
possibility for this problem
Thank you once again for your reply
Much appreciated
Ashraf
You'll find a backup of your configuration parameters in
/usr/src/qtp-upgrade/backups/. There's a folder there of each time
qtp-newmodel is run. You can compare the contents of the most recent
backup directory against what is currently configured. Please let us
know if you find anything.
Were you previously using DK signatures?
