Topic: SMTP Error (451): Failed to add recipient CentOS

hello,

we are talking about the CentOS 5.6 64 Bit ...

while waiting for upgrade to pro ver I tested the free ver and I received following error from roundcube.
SMTP Error (451): Failed to add recipient "xxx@hotmail.com" (4.3.5 Server configuration problem)

The log:

Apr 20 13:52:40 mail postfix/smtpd[3848]: connect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]

I found the more or less the same problem on another post on this forum but it was a debian linux....

Could you help me to fix this on the CentOS ?

Thank You
cheers

iRedAPD service is not running. Could you try to start it manually?

# /etc/init.d/iredapd restart

And make sure it will be started automatically when system start up:

# chkconfig --level 345 iredapd on

What do you mean? You didn't receive mails which were sent before restarting iredapd?

Re: SMTP Error (451): Failed to add recipient CentOS

I mean when I restarted the iredpad and tried to send the email I got the message Email Sent Successfully...
BUT this email which is sent, I never received it... in short words, it seems that server is sending the email BUT email never reaches the destination... like it`s not sent at all, but the roundcube says that email is sent...

Re: SMTP Error (451): Failed to add recipient CentOS

You should check postfix maillog and dovecot log file to check what happened:
/var/log/maillog
/var/log/dovecot.log
/var/log/sieve.log

Re: SMTP Error (451): Failed to add recipient CentOS

log says nothing to me, can`t see what`s wrong..... could be something with hosting provider and running centOS on Virtuzzo ?
I know from my     experience when You are running virtual machine on virtuzzo, there is something wired for example:

You cannot change the hostname
iptables goes crazy
You cannot adjust the clock time-date

what more could be god knows...
but any way here is the log output:

Amavisd service is not running. That's why you can't receive mails.
Try this:

# /etc/init.d/amavisd restart
