XMail Forum > XMail Server > Message Files Are Not Created And I Can't Seem To

Posted by: ciuly Jan 30 2010, 06:32 PM

Hello.

I just migrated my server (hw and sw) from what's in my signature (yeah, I'll update that later on) to a dual proc 866 intel PIII with 512 mb ram and 2 scsi 19GB hdd in raid (0 for swap 1 for /) and a storage ide hdd of 80 GB.
in installed centos 5, latest. when I moved my xmail files to the new machine, obviously it didn't start complaining about whatever .so so I downloaded 1.26 and rebuilt, figuring it was about high time to upgrade xmail as well.

I can send email from local network to internet. I can also receive emails up to one point: smtp.log file shows that RCPT and RECV are OK. filters and all are being processed ok.
however, no file is created in the users dir:
$MailRoot/domains/domain/user/Maildir/new

domains dir is actually a symlink to the storage hdd (that's how it used to be on the old system and it worked fine). same is the logs folder (which is being used ok since I can see the logs). everything else is where it should be.

everything is chowned to root:root (including stuff in the symlinks)

(note: I had to set and export the MAIL_ROOT for the following to work)

CODE

[root@Impuls bin]# ./XMail --debug -Md -Mr 24 -Pl -Pt 120 -Pw 5 -B- -Sl -St 120 -X- -Ql -Qg -Yl -Fl -Cl -Ct 120 -W- -Ll

SMAIL local SMTP = "ciuly.com" From = <XXX@gmail.com> To = <root@ciuly.com>
SMTP client exit [209.85.218.221]

so basically my question is: where is my email file? I did a
find /var/MailRoot/domains/ -min -15
but only the .ipconn files showed up (that's from the email client polling pop3)

am I missing something? or maybe I am doing something wrong in regards to the new version?

thanks.

dropping the symlink to "domains" and having it a normal dir on the local disk solved the problem.

which obviously makes me think: WHY doesn't xmail like symlinks for the domains? the logs worked and they were also symlinked to the sotrage drive like domains. why was this added?.

XMailforum is a readonly knowledge archive now.
