System sending mail to [email protected]?

System sending mail to [email protected]? [Fixed]

I got a mail with this content:

/etc/cron.daily/custombuild: line 6: mail: command not found

So I installed mailx (yum install mailx) to solve this.

After I did that, mails are being send to [email protected], I got a returned mail here:

[email protected]
    SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<[email protected]>:

It's really send to [email protected] I did not cloak that, I only cloaked the servers domain name.

How can I fix this so system messages will be send to the email address it's normally send to and not to [email protected]?

Edit: Just got two new ones.
One is send directly to the correct email address, the other is again one that came back which was send to [email protected]. Strange, isn't it?

in the options.conf you should add:

email=your email to send notifications


if you don't want notifications:

notifications=no

Well... that's not the issue, because I always have that in my options.conf.
As you can see from the latter added lines, I now got emails to both [email protected] and on the other server to the email address I put in options.conf.

I just did a ./build clean, ./build update, ./build update_versions and restart exim on both servers to see if that helps. That seems to be helping on 1 of the servers.

Both servers keep sending mails that clamd is not running, but it -is- running, I even restarted it just to be sure and the status says it's running.

So like I said, getting 2 notifications now.

This is the one that is still going to [email protected] and seens not to have a return path:

So I have the notification email set, but something is still going wrong.

You were almost right Peter.
I wend looking and I had a script in /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom which checks if clamd is running.
On one server, the path was wrong in the beginning, on the other server there was no email address in the check file.
Normally I copy them from the older servers and it's always working, but this time I forgot that I made new ones, so these still had the default settings.

It's fixed now.
