Examine your mail system's logs:
/var/log/exim/mainlog
/var/log/exim/rejectlog

Send an email from remote email to one of yours on server with DA and see the error message in a bounce.

Nothing useful there. Send an email from remote email to one of yours on server with DA and see the error message in a bounce.

Enable logging of all events in /etc/exim.conf temporary:

Code:
log_selector = \
  +all
#  +delivery_size \
#  +sender_on_delivery \
#  +received_recipients \
#  +received_sender \

Do a test running exim -bh from your command line. See man exim for more information.

Jeff
 
Still nothing interesting in logs. Do debugging with exim as Jeff said.
And send an email from remote email to one of yours on server with DA and see the error message in a bounce.
 
I cant get get exim -bh to work on the command line..

hmm any ideas what it could be??
 
Exactly what are you using as your command line?

What error are you getting?

Note this does not require root.

I'm having exactly the same problem, all of a sudden, from this morning on, all mails to my reseller account get bounced back. Didn't change anything !?

local delivery failed is the message I am getting when sending mail from remote account.

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:


Any idea what I can do to get my mail back up ASAP ?
