Hello DA-folks,

When I sent a message to e.g. a non-existent mail address the mail is directly frozen.
But I do not receive a bounce mail at the sender the mail address.

Is this standard or is there something wrong?

I do see the following in the log:

Code:
Process failed (1) when writing error message to [email protected] (frozen)


[email protected] = the sender mail address.


What can I do to solve this?

Many thanks
 
Hello,

What are the versions you use:

- exim
- exim.conf
- OS version

Normally bounces should be sent. What else you have in exim logs?
 
Thank you zEitEr,


  • Exim 4.91
  • exim.conf 4.5.9 (SpamBlockerTechnology powered)
  • OS version: CentOS 6.10


The bounce message is delivered, if I click manually on Bounce in DirectAdmin panel.


A couple of lines from the main log:

Should I look for something specific in the logs?
 
Additional information

  • exim.pl version 24
  • blockcracking is set to version 1.7 (mentioned as: customized) I see in custombuild plugin.
 
The problem is solved by removing the customized versions file of the custombuild plugin.

- blockcracking updated to version 1.10.

Further steps I have taken:

Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build exim
./build dovecot_conf
./build spamassassin
./build update
./build exim_conf


Thank you!
