URGENT!! Started happening today. The pop service keeps going wrong. When users try to pop their mail, the connection is refused or says it can't connect to the mail server. When I go to the control panel and click on save changes to restart the services, it works again for about an hour then errors again. Where can I go to see what is going wrong please?
Its most likely to be logged in either: 1. /var/log/maillog 2. /var/log/messagesTelnet/SSH into the server, "su" to change to root and then you can "tail" the file to see whats happening - try something like:
tail -f /var/log/maillog (to view the running output from the server)tail -f /var/log/maillog | grep qpopper (to view just POP3 server messages)
If the "maillog" file shows nothing - try "messages". Hope that helps...
