General :: Phantom Email Arrives Every Day / Get Rid Of It?
Apr 13, 2011
I had a simple cron shell script running under Fedora 14. It runs under a user account. The shell script invoked a PHP script to do some simple batch database updates. If a step failed, the PHP script used the mail command to email me of the failure.
The problem is that an email from this job is arriving every day at 4:30 am. I deleted the job from the cron. I even renamed the shell script to make sure! The email is an old one and is stuck somewhere and I don't know where. I restarted the sendmail service and that did not clear it. I don't even know why it happens at 4:30am! At one time the cron ran it at 4:30 but now its not even in cron! And as I said, I renamed the shell script to make sure.

Originaly I had Win7 and Ubuntu (Ub) set up OK in dual boot. The Ub was on a seperate drive in its own partition - then the darn drive failed. Without reinstalling Uu I still get it as an option in the dual boot menu. If I do reinstall Ub I end up with a 2nd Ub option. How can I get the boot menu to show Win7 only, so that I can re-install Ub with only 1 entry in the boot table?
I have tried using bootrec.exe from the command line in Win7 recovery mode but that does not fix things.

Sendmail will send letters OK, but they never show up. I cannot recieve with dovecot either. Everything seems to be OK, but it never works. I can send and recieve from localhost, but nothing outside.
The router is listening on 143, 110, and 25, and is forwarding just fine, or my site probably would not be visible.My HTTP site is at geekinsnthings.homelinux.org, the other address visible in the output is for anything else. THis is because geekinsnthings.homelinux.org redirects me to 8080 on my IP.

I get this message when I try to start my Apache httpd server :
Code:
[root@user ~]# /etc/init.d/httpd start
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:8091 [OK]
So I tried to identify the user of port 8091 :
Code:
sudo netstat -nap | grep 8091
sudo lsof -i:8091
But it seems that nothing is using port 8091! I'm running on Fedora 13 and I cannot use an other port for my server.

I have noticed that on my laptop, when I check for available networks; I get this [picture attached]. However all those networks are non existent at that time when I scan for networks with my desktop PC (which is right next to the laptop). How can I stop these phantom networks from appearing? Note: One of those networks is mine. Even when I have my router switched off, my laptop (running Linux Mint) still says it is available.

Server with 4 disk partitions in an RAID 5 array using md. Yesterday the array failed with two devices showing as faulty. After rebooting from rescue, I was able to force the assembly and start the array and everything looks to be okay as far as the data goes, but when I run:
Code:
mdadm --examine /dev/sda3
I get (truncating to the interesting bits):
Code:
Raid Level : raid5
Raid Devices : 4
Avail Dev Size : 1448195216 (690.55 GiB 741.48 GB)
Array Size : 4344585216 (2071.66 GiB 2224.43 GB)
Used Dev Size : 1448195072 (690.55 GiB 741.48 GB)
Array Slot : 0 (0, 1, 2, failed, 3)
Array State : Uuuu 1 failed
And
Code:
mdadm --detail /dev/md1
yields:
Code:
Array Size : 2172292608 (2071.66 GiB 2224.43 GB)
Used Dev Size : 1448195072 (1381.11 GiB 1482.95 GB)
Raid Devices : 4
Total Devices : 4
Active Devices : 4
Working Devices : 4
Failed Devices : 0
Spare Devices : 0
Additionally, the 'slot' for devices a-d line up like this:
a - 0
b - 1
c - 2
d - 4 (!)
The first number 'Array Size' from examine is twice as big as sit should be based on the output from detail and comparing to twinned server, and why does the 'Array State' and 'Array Slot' from examine indicate there's a 5th device that's not indicated anywhere else?

In my Windows environment, I use email client such as Microsoft Outlook to connect to our email server to send email with the following configuration:
Incoming server (POP3): 995 - (requires with SSL)
Outgoing server (SMTP): 465 - (use encrypted connection SSL)
[code]....
And the mail server requires user ID login and password.how do I setup a text command based email client in my Linux (Centos 5.1) to send out email through the existing email server above, which is in another machine? The email client has to be text command based because I need to use command line to send notification email from anothar application installed in my Linux (Centos 5.1) Since the email client will only be used to send email notification, I don't require setting up of an email server in my linux.

Using CentOS. I have a cron setup to run this command: Code: /var/test.sh | mail -s "Test Cron" mr182@somewhere.com The email is sent but the output of the script is not in the email body, it's just blank. I know there is some output because there are some echo statements in the script.I don't want to get an email for all cronjobs, just this one.

I have an email setup where all of the emails from our email host is downloaded to our Linux server using Fetchmail. Then some of the incoming emails are sent to an MS exchange server (server1.domain.com) using Postfix. What i want to do is to send a copy of all emails to Another server (server2.domain.com) for redundancy.Can postfix be configured to send copies out to both?

$ uptime

looks as though this is the culprit, but...
$ kill 5485
-bash: kill: (5485) - No such process
This process doesn't exist in the /proc folder or the output of ps. Does anyone know how this happened, and how to remove this ghost user from my system without a complete reboot? I think I have seen a similar thing on a RedHat machine ages ago but I have never figured out how to log out these ghost users.

Debian 5, apache 2.2 I've got Apache up and hosting multiple sites. Each site will have a php contact me page that will simply dump an email to a fixed address. What program should i be using to accomplish this? I've used nullmailer before but that assumes you have a fixed smarthost somewhere which I don't.

I use 'quoted' style for reply emails. I want to be able to intersperse my replies within a quoted reply i.e. if the email had three paragraphs, I'd like to be able to have my replies between each of the paragraphs. At the moment, I don't seem to be able to do anything other than delete from the quoted section - I try to simulate my requirements by cutting and then 'paste quotation', but this doesn't always work as sometimes Evolution adds too many levels of '> ' .

we had a server with Hostway, and it was running ubuntu. The server also had Plesk installed, which did some funny things. We had several websites on that server, and many email addresses. Then we changed servers. Now we have a server through Rackspace and it is also running Ubuntu. It also has Virtualmin installed, which generally does not impose as many unconventional changes on Ubuntu as Plesk did.
Rather than using Thunderbird to download my email (which is what I used to do) I've decided I'll start reading my email on the server. So I will ssh to the server and then use some email client, such as Alpine, to read the email. So I installed Alpine. I have an email account for "lawrence". The email address is lawrence @ krubner. Currently, when mail arrives for that account, it is stored here:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new
and then it is transferred to hear:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur
When I start Alpine, while logged in as lawrence, Alpine automatically sets up an inbox for me here:
/home/lawrence/mail/
How do I get Alpine (or any other client) to read from the correct folder? I'm fairly sure the email package (the MTA) at work on this new server is Postfix. As near as I can tell, my email is held for 24 hours in this folder:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/new
and then it gets transferred here:
/home/krubner/homes/lawrence/Maildir/cur
Alpine only lets me set one path for my Inbox, so I'm not sure what path I should set. If I use "cur" I will see all email 1 day late, but if I use "new" then I will miss email if I go a day without checking.

I have recently setup a new mail server and have simulated sending and receiving on the new email server. The new email server will replace the primary one.I would like to setup the new email server in parallel with the existing one.This way i can observe issues that might occur and be aware of what could go wrong. I want to received mail to be delivered to both mail servers at the same time.I would like to use postfix, exim i find a bit to difficult to understand.I have thought of using transport maps, the only problem is that you can only forward mail to one server at a time using transport maps.I think recipient_bcc_maps and sender_bcc_maps could work, i would just like ideas of how i can do this.

Is there a way to configure exim4 to bcc all new incoming emails to another email address? My boss wants a copy of all outgoing emails.
I know postfix can do this with a bcc_always option. Im sure exim4 should be able to also.

I was wondering if there's some web-based email application (like Zimbra) or perhaps gmail can do it I'm not sure that can handle both receiving and sending of mail from multiple email accounts.I have about 4 different email accounts with various different domains and would like to have one platform which has an inbox for each account and from which I can send mail from any of the accounts

I am thinking about buying a domain name and hosting my web server.
I have seen pricing from $8 to $30 a year. Any favorites from fellow ubunters? Also this whole "whois" thing scares me, if I am correct my information I enter when buying the domain is enter into some big pool of information. People can find this information out and dig up important information. url Can I prevent this with private Whois or how do I set it up? This website examples some of my fears with this whole WhoIs thing, url whois/Private-Whois.html Does most/all domain registers come with email or just email forwarding or both? How does that work? At this moment, my only question about Web Hosting is how do I get Website Statistics as in: Stats, web analytics, web traffic stats and more? I will be web hosting through Ubuntu 9.10 gnome.

Have someone used Linux heartbeat to send email when the Slave server becomes the Master? I've read I can configure the MailTo under.
But I really don't know how to do it. I basically need my primary server to send an email when it becomes inactive and all the activities are manage by the secondary node.

I have a php script which uses php mail to send us the results from a web form. If I set the email address to receive the form as my yahoo account I receive the email fine, however if I set the email address to receive the form as an address with our domain name we never get the email.
I have searched on google to see if I could find out what was happening and did see some references to issues where if the web server was sending an email 'locally' it didnt check the mx record. Which seems like whats happening - but I am not sure how to tell linux (centos) where the email for a 'local' email should be sent.
