Exim problem

Hi,

I have a very weird problem with Exim. When I try to send a mail with
the mail() function of PHP under Apache, I get this error:

2006-06-27 15:02:01 1FvDCX-00028h-Dp == user [at] domain R=lookuphost
T=remote_smtp defer (-1): smtp transport process returned non-zero
status 0x000b: terminated by signal 11
2006-06-27 15:02:01 1FvDCX-00028h-Dp Frozen

I already tried the suggestion at
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=114 but it didn't help. Also,
when I run the same script with the CLI php binary, it works just fine.

When I try to force delivering the message with exim -d+all -M
<messageid> it just gets delivered fine.

Any idea how this is possible?

Kind regards,
Wouter de Vries

Try rm /var/spool/exim/db/*

In that case, try running in debugging mode to see where the crash occurs.

Exim is an MTA - it listens on port 25 by default. It transfers email
from one MTA to another and accepts submissions from MUAs if so
configured. It does not deal in IMAP or POP3.

imapd is whatever IMAP daemon you are running and listens on port 143.

This is not an exim problem, however at a wild guess, I'd say
"/usr/local/vdomains/testteen5/\n\n\n\n " doesn't
exist on your system. Maybe a typo in an imap config file or /etc/passwd
or userdb or maybe just the Maildir directory missing or the directory
doesn't have the correct permissions.

I don't see the part that makes this an exim problem.

^^ Uncomment that line and set it to example.com

qualify_domain = example.com

That should do it.

The final step will be 'pay the invoice'....

Seriously - it's not really appropriate to say 'tell me exactly how to
go about this high-level task' when dealing with a user-supported
product. Please read the available documentation, then if you have
specific things you don't understand, or you can't work out how to
apply them to your circumstances, come back with those.
