I can't figure out why but my sendmail email server won't send/receive emails anymore. It worked just a couple of days ago but doesn't now. Funny thing is I don't remember doing anything to it.
Here's what I get from the returned/unreceived messages:
The e-mail system was unable to deliver the message, but did not
report a specific reason. Check the address and try again. If it still
fails, contact your system administrator
Here's what I'm getting when I try to send email.
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'xxxx@xxxx.net', Server: 'mail.xxxx.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
I know that there's not a problem with my router...but it does seem that port 25 isn't open anymore when I scan my ports. WTF???
I've looked at /var/log/maillog and it says nothing important. I've lso looked at sendmail.mc and .cf, and all the other files in /etc/mail....they haven't changed.
I have no idea what to do.
