Many of use use SpamAssassin to score mail I prefer to use ALL Spmassassin scores, and not set a value in hmailserver to a positive notification in SpamAssassin I also accept large spam scores then silently delete them to reduce backscatter. Some detail on your observations so far Martin isn't aroun...

Honestly, I'd expect one hMailserver instance to handle that load, especially with no POP3 or IMAP services being offered. Two would add redundancy. We have had reports (albeit not recent) of single hmailserver instances sending up to a million email per day. I run full IMAP / POP3 plus SMTP for aro...

Yes, there is a new teamCity version for 5.7, build number #2556 But does it have this fix? I can't see this by just reading the "changes" there....

Another option is to use Windows credentials Run the hMailserver Windows Service as a specific user, and only allow that user access to the files in the data directory You can also encrypt whole disks with bitlocker As for failover, the easiest I reckon is to run your hmailserver OS virtually.

I'd also save the settings, and REBOOT the device, and then check settings again.

Sometimes with cheaper devices a save and then immediate reboot will make them behave

Please start a new thread (as per forum rules) and link back to this one of you think relevant

Make sure you include all mail clients that you use, and the specs of your server

mattg

Install hMailserver

In SMTP-Relayer section set gMail, and use your gmail account to AUTH that connection

That's all that is required

(As an aside, something much smaller like STUNNELL installed on a single machine on your network could also achieve this)

mattg

That error indicates that the antivirus on the machine that hMailserver is installed on doesn't have the hMailserver data directory excluded from regular file scanning ALSO, if the emails have the same TO as the FROM and the messages are not really from your user, then I'm guessing that they contain...

Those are really old tables

How long have you been using hMailserver? What was the the earliest version that you installed?

Only reason i can think of that justifies leaving the temp fix in place: Some worldwide or regional DNS outage New domains, with large (unchangeable) TTL For example last week or so a big datacenter of OVH burned down in France that took 3.6 million websites across 464,000 distinct domains offline ...

headers sent in a SMTP client session?
Perhaps use Wireshark or something similar
I'm really not sure what you will find though

To refresh the queue

In the GUI
Status >> Delivery Queue >> Refresh (button at top of screen)

Please show the logs with the error

If it was a 5xx error, a bounce should created for the sender
If it was a 4xx error, hmailserver will try to send again

first up. make sure that you refresh the queue Then check your logs thoroughly, and then open them with an email client (ie thunderbird) I often find that the messages that get stuck are viruses, or mail outs to multiple recipeints, or that the message has actually been sent.

I already checked some migration tools but they were either paid, too complicated for me to understand or simply didn't work at all so I decided that I'll install hMailServer, create an empty database and write a small script which will keep the records in sync until I shut the old server down.

I thought the paths are not saved in the database? If so, how does hmailserver know about the old path if I change it in the ini?

It doesn't, that's the point

You can move the data directory and reset the ini setting, restarting hMailserver and all will continue to work (with the new path)

How about using a global rule
