Perhaps qmail isn't actually running; post the output of `ps auxw | grep qmail` or `ps -ef | grep qmail`, and we'll be able to tell you that much.

Ok I can do that,but why the injection of mail thro the port number 25 also just puts the mail in queue without delivering?

Re: Re: Re: smtp times out
Hai, 172.16.69.7 is the internal dns server. $/var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote anysmtpservername senderaddress reciveraddress works fine. But when I try to send mail from my pine.It just puts the mail in the queue.I can see 2 mails in the queue to mailandnews.com.The same mail reaches the recipient([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if I use qmail-remote directly.So I don't think there is any blocking in the firewall. with regards kamesh jayachandran On Wed, 30 May 2001, Santosh Pasi wrote: > Hi, > > > ---Original Message-- > Date: Wed, 30 May 2001 11:57:55 -0400 (EDT) > >From: kamesh jayachandran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >To: Santosh Pasi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Subject: Re: Re: smtp times out > >In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > >Hai, > >Thanks again. > >my resolv.conf file is, > > > >nameserver 172.16.69.7 //local ip > >nameserver 202.54.1.30 > >nameserver 164.164.4.5 > >nameserver 164.164.128.16 > > Is 172.16.69.7 is your local dns server? > more over there are four entries for nameserver, which is wrong > according to RFCs. > so for time being and testing, just remove first entry and try ... > sending mail to say yahoo, hotmail, rediff. > If it goes, then try sending mails to your internal network, if it gives > error this time, then make second nameserver as 172.16.69.7 (again if it is > your dns server) > before that try to ping to 202.54.1.30? > > As you are behind firewall, make sure in firewall server or routers, to > enable support for smtp and related protocols. > > > > > > >$echo "hai"|/var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote smtp.mail.yahoo.com kameshj > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >It works by giving out the message that "not able to resolve the sender > >domain"(since my machine is behind the firewall,I am just playing with > >qmail so that I can install it at production machines). > > > >$echo "hai"|/var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote ductape.net kameshj > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >just returns(meaning that it is not successful). > >samething happens for other domains like shellyeah.org,etc. > >will the order of nameserver entries in /etc/resolv.conf affect the > >lookup? > > Yes, it matters, it looks first nameserver .. if it does't resolve or > find records in two sec, it goes to next namserver( afaik and rfc says) > > Santosh Pasi > > >with regards > >kamesh jayachandran > > -- > >"Talk is cheap.
