I ran the exim.sh script in the /usr/local/directadmin/scripts folder today thinking it was my script to update exim, but I was in the wrong folder. Now all of my email is being rejected, what do I have to do to be able fix this? Almost everything in the log has "Sender verify failed" at the end of the line.

Also all mail is being bounced back with:

Technical details of permanent failure:
PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 550-Verification failed for <[email protected]>
550-Unrouteable address
550 Sender verify failed

errors.

Actually I looked at that right after I posted this. I'm hoping that solves it all. It seems to have. I left this open in case anyone else has any other suggestions.
 
Just a firewall or protection or simply network congestion cause problem. So If you use this option use a timeout which don't block (callout). More info on exim.org wiki and manual.
This is commented on my exim config, howewer i do other check.
I hope you have a no error config at dnsreport check, for all your domains including server.
 
Did you have Dovecot installed? Or any custom stuff in exim.conf? The script you ran may have installed a new copy of exim.conf.

You may also want to check to see if you can do an nslookup example.com from the server shell login, where example.com is replaced by one of the domains for which you get the error.

Otherwise contact DA support and tell them what you did, and ask them if they'e come across the problem before.
