help with error in mainlog

[vincenzobar]

I have this:

2005-01-27 10:29:01 1CuBZt-0006IQ-QJ ** [email protected] F=<[email protected]> R=spamcheck_director T=spamcheck: Child process of spamcheck transport returned 1 from command: /usr/sbin/exim

2005-01-27 10:29:01 1CuBZt-0006IQ-QJ Process failed (1) when writing error message to [email protected] (frozen)


Frozen is what is worrying me. I sent some stuff through and it blocked it from my address to same address on server.

You appear to have an error in your exim.conf file. What that error is I can't tell you because I don't know.

You can unfreeze frozen messages; you'll need to look up how to do that on the exim.org site.

anyone have the original exim.conf file???? attach a txt or something. i need to compare and contrast!


PLEAAASSEEE

i started exim from etc.init.d and
got error no suer majordomo. but did a adduser majordomo and got user already exists.


what do i have to do here?

 

[vincenzobar]

in passwd i have majordomo:x:102:2::blah blah blah

shouldn't 102 be 12 for mail? its 102 for mySQL as you can see.

2 is daemon

is it right as is?

 

[vincenzobar]

well as soon as i got Spamd to stop running in the exim.conf file it started working again. So its an error there. I have no more spam assassin but atleast i get emails

as for how to unfreeze emails

exim -bp

gives a list of all frozen emails output the IDs with a perl script or something. I had to release them fast and am not good at perl so i just VIM and did a search on /frozen and "n"-ed my way through it and found all the emails i wanted released. Opened two terminals and copied the Email ID of everyone i wanted to release too:

exim -Mt <insert ID here> <again> <as many as you want at once>

then hit enter and it will display something like this

email Tt868998-Pv has been thawed

wait like 5 minutes and it will appear. if you sort by date it will be placed on date received and not when it was thawed.

I was thinking it wasn't working then i noted bold emails on the 25th and 26th that haven't been read!

Still pissed off about spamd not working

when i run spamd i get an error port 783 in use on localhost. WTF!!!!
