I am running qmail on redhat 7.1. qmail is working fine. outlook is used to
fetch mails via pop3.
when i restart the server, qmail smtpd gives a problem.
while sending a outlook says connecting and waits without any action.
when i telnet to port 25 on the server it again dosent reply.
when i do a ps, i get see more than 1 smtpd running. (the number varies,
some times 3 some times 4 )
when i replaced the file /var/qmail/service/smtpd/run (rights 755, and
sticky bit set for smtpd directory)
what could be the problem and how do i resolve it.
Best Regards,
Arun Hubballi,
