So I know a few months ago exim crashed and was re installed.


when I do a: pkg_version -v

exim-4.77-1 ! Comparison failed
exim-4.80.1_2 = up-to-date with port


So currently, It looks like DA makes the e-mail account. If I send mail, I see it in the usage: 0.0294 / 50

But when I try to pop or even use roundcube to get the mail, it shows as being empty.


Tried updating my exim.conf and same issue. Any ideas?


Thanks,
Brian
 
log file shows :
2013-05-14 04:33:40 exim 4.77 daemon started: pid=22960, -q1h, listening for SMTP on port 25 (IPv6 and IPv4) port 587 (IPv6 and IPv4) and for SMTPS on port 465 (IPv6 and IPv4)

It also shows my e-mails.


So my guess is when I log in, it's logging me into the newer version??
 
Hello,

You should completely remove exim from your system, and install it from scratch. Then you might need to run

Code:
./build update 
./build dovecot
./build todovecot
 
I assume doing that will lose all my e-mails?


Also, this is freebsd 9.x box.
 
No, Exim has nothing to do with your emails as soon as they arrived to a server: remote, or local. Exim is only a way to send/deliver emails. Your emails are stored on HDD, and are safe if you even remove exim.
