Postfix Not delivering. Qmail Errors in log

[AntonioS]

Hi All,

I have a plesk server with Postfix not sending mail from yesterday evening.

I am mad searching for the reason but I can't get it work. The errors I see on logs are:

Jul 21 12:30:40 delta postfix-local[10342]: File .qmail is writable for group or others
Jul 21 12:30:40 delta postfix-local[10342]: Wrong permissions for .qmail

I can't undestand this error, I am using Postfix and so I don't know how to solve it.

Greeted in advance for the help

It means...

It means the file is writable by the group and/or any other user.

Check file permissions on the directory (ls -lah), and you should see something like this:

-rw-rw-rw-

The first 3 permissions are for the owner, the second for the group, third for all others.

You should remove write permissions for the group using the command:

chmod g-w <filename>

or for all others

chmog o-w <filename>

Hope this helps
