At 07:16 local time this morning my Plesk system ran the drweb update/pl script. 2 minutes prior to that an external email was accepted and processed properly. 3 minutes after the update, all incoming external emails quit working.
A bit to sleuthing later, I discovered that the /var/qmail/bin/qmail-queue.origin file had its permissions changed to r-xr-xr-x and the owner to root:qmail. This is incorrect. it should have been:
r-s--x--x and qmailq:qmail
A chmod and a chown to the correct values fixed everything. I still do not know WHY the drweb update.pl script made these changes, but I will know to look for them in the future.
