Hi,

For some email accounts, they can receive fine but when they send the email doesn't really send. Any suggestions?

If you want help with anything around here trying explaining your issue. You cant expect help without explaining in detail the issue at hand. What do you mean by Doesnt Really Send? It either sends or it doesnt.

Hello, sorry about that.

I created an email account in cpanel, and when using it, it turns out that send emails to others but you can't receive email from others. However, other email accounts work out to be fine. I even tried removing the email accounts and re-adding them. Still no luck.

Thanks,

Fazer

For newly created accounts in cPanel, the usernames usually needs to have "@domainname.com" added at the end.

Try sending yourself a msg while watching the exim_mainlog log for answers. After you log in as root type tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog then while watching the log entries in real time have somebody send you a msg. Whats the result? It could be a million things.

Nevermind.

It was a mail permissions error. By running /scripts/mailperm it fixed it all. Thanks anyways!

Here is an example of an email sent to an account that isn't able to send or receive email in the last 2 days....
This is from tailing the log:

2003-10-20 23:38:23 1ABoHn-0002dq-L6 <= user@domain.com H=(sub.domain.com) [66.98.xxx.xxx] P=esmtp X=TLSv1:DES-CBC3-SHA:168 S=1189 id=003601c3978d$24430220$9a00a8c0@computername

Looks good...but mail doesn't arrive at users mailbox although it makes it to the server.
