MailEnable error connection timed out


I am getting these errors from MailEnable, the OS is CentOS. The errors are from /var/log/maillog as suggested by @OlegNeumyvakin.

 Sep  8 03:33:12 localhost journal: plesk sendmail[38416]: handlers_stderr:$
 Sep  8 03:33:12 localhost journal: plesk sendmail[38416]: SKIP during call$
 Sep  8 03:33:12 localhost postfix/pickup[35664]: 66B7B21F2D4F: uid=0 from=$
 Sep  8 03:33:12 localhost postfix/cleanup[38422]: 66B7B21F2D4F: message-id$
 Sep  8 03:33:12 localhost postfix/qmgr[9634]: 66B7B21F2D4F: from=<root@loc$

The email cannot send nor receive anything. I am trying to get it to work since it is for a site and it needs to send/receive emails.


Solution

  • You can check your virtual address by command:

     postmap -q [email protected]  hash:/var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual
    

    virtual.db is Berkeley DB file

    you can check it content with Berkeley DB dump util:

    # db5.1_dump -p /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db
    
    VERSION=3
    format=print
    type=hash
    h_nelem=4103
    db_pagesize=4096
    HEADER=END

     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
     [email protected]\00
    DATA=END
    

    you can install this util with yum install libdb-utils

    Also in case you have issues with sending mail you can check limitations on outgoing email messages at Tools & settings > Mail Server Settings and if you have enabled them Tools & settings > Outgoing Mail Control
