[7.450][QUESTION][ANSWERED] SMTP Proxy

[ukdtom]

When the scanner crashes, mails are moved to the error queue

2009:06:15-23:31:00 fw smtpd[3879]: MASTER[3879]: 1MGJas-0001I2-2a Scanner crash - moving to error queue
2009:06:15-23:34:00 fw smtpd[3879]: MASTER[3879]: 1MGE7G-0004ym-0K Scanner crash - moving to error queue

But....They do not show in the mail manager, until the Astaro is restarted

Technically you are correct, but the scanner should never crash. In any case, you can just type /var/mdw/scripts/smtp restart on console as root and that will refresh your smtp spool without a restart.

Great ...ThanX......

Any change this can be done automated somehow ?

[Billybob]

you can set up a cron job by editing /etc/crontab-static. As root, type joe /etc/crontab-static and add the following line at the end of the file.

56 05 * * * root /var/mdw/scripts/smtp restart

This will restart the proxy at 5:56am every day. You can get more creative by restarting it multiple times, just google crontab. I wouldn't mess with it too much if you get a lot of mails...
