Unable to send emails

[jplorans]

Hi everyone,

I've just create an email account which works fine for incoming emails but that's another story for outgoing.

Actually, in the Mail Queue Adminisnistration, i have all emails waiting to be sent out and if i try send one again, then, i've the following message:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").

does anyone know what to do with??

Thanks in advance
JP

Hello,

I recall seeing that error a very long time ago, but havn't seen it since. From what I remember, the issue was some missing "default" environmental variables that perl is looking for (mentioned in the error). I can't recall exactly what (if anything) was the fix, but do recall the the error is benign (apart from being annoying). if a newer version of perl is avaiable, try upgrading to that as well.

I've just googled the error and many results were returned, here are the first few results:

For debian, the common theme appears to be:

apt-get install locales
