After updating to Plesk 8.1.1, cannot send email out.

[limparty]

After finishing update to(of) Plesk 8.1.1, my script (PHP) cannot send email out of my server and other computers(servers) cannot send via my server(SMTP) also (I use Outlook Express).

Please give me an emergency advise.

Thank you very much.

Now my server can send email out.

by reinstall qmail
1.you have to check, is there install qmail file (psa-qmail-1.03-fc5.bulid81070322.17.i586.rpm) in /root/psa/PSA_8.1.1/{dist}/base
2.if yes, type "rpm -q psa-qmail"
3."rpm -e <all name in the list>" (for me there is only one.)
4."rpm -ivh psa-qmail..."

But the problem is it can forward email from other, but cannot send email from PHP script on the server both local and remote.

Anyone can help me.

ps.my White List is 127.0.0.0/8

change whitelist to:
127.0.0.1/32

Make sure selinux isn't blocking php from sending email.
Try to enter this via ssh: setenforce 0
Now try using your php script again.

Thank you very much, now my PHP script can send mail.

I still have one big problem is there is many spam mail via my server, can I block it?
I think I have to find spam IP, then I can block it by httpd.deny. But I don't know where to find spam IP. Anyone know, please tell me.

setenforce 0 turned off selinux.
You now have 2 options
1) disable selinux permanently:
tpye: vi etc\selinux\config
change: SELINUX=enforce to SELINUX=disabled

2) look on google how to configure selinux to allow sending emails via php. I believe but could be completely wrong that selinux will need to allow remote httpd connections


What type of email spam?

 

[limparty]

there are planty of email in queue around 5 emails per second.

It's seem someone use my smtp server to send spam email to others.
