Yes that’s what works (see my earlier posts). Net stop throws an error but eventually returns and then net start works.

Interesting read but I’m wondering if beating the server back into submission has any side effects on data quality or stability.

The question is why does the API to stop hang in the first place?

Try with more than 5 seconds in the wait

It never makes it to the 5 second wait in the script. It just hangs indefinitely at the stop call

So true to Windows, I did a reboot and for now the batch file seems to be working fine. However the script above is definitely creating an issue and still causing a hang (which then hangs the batch file also). I don't know what's with the script/API but it isn't happy about something which then mess...

Thanks. I checked and it doesn’t apply here since we are using 2012 R2. Any other thoughts ?

I checked and there are no SYNC_RCVD connections on hMailServer when this happens. Just one UDP port on hMailServer that’s it.

Thanks for that, it is really helpful. Only one Question: I don't like the idea to save a script including the admin password in plain text - why not having a batch file containing @ECHO OFF NET STOP hMailServer NET START hMailServer The scheduled task itself runs with the highest privileges, so th...

The script was taken from this topic: https://www.hmailserver.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32593 I even tried switching to a bat file to use the net stop service command this is what I get: C:\Windows\system32>NET STOP hMailServer The service is not responding to the control function. More help is avai...

I'm using LetsEncrypt to review my certificates which are used by the website server and also by hMailServer. I read on the forum that hMailServer needs to be restarted to reload the new certificates and the best way to do it so to run the following scripts in the task scheduler when letsencrypt is ...

Apologies, please ignore my earlier posts, they aren't relevant, I found out why my hMailServer is stopping and will create a separate topic for it. (it to do a a VB script that started hanging recently). You information was very helpful anyways for future reference.

Thanks, that didn't work unfortunately, I'll post on the other thread to continue the discussion

Check for this https://www.hmailserver.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=33965 I take that back, I had enabled the firewall after reading your post which was blocking the ports to hMailServer. After creating an exception, I see a TON of SYN_RCVD but they are on port 25. Can I disable port 25? I'm only ...

Check for this https://www.hmailserver.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=33965 Thank you very much, I don't see a lot of SYN_RCVD under hMailServer but I see see it under svchost.exe and on port 21 and instead of 587. I'll keep and on eye the next time it hangs. The symptoms are EXACTLY like you said, ...

Did anyone ever figure this out? I seem to be having a similar issue. My hMailServer on a windows server just seems to hang. It funny because the status page says "Stopping" for some reason. I don't know why it change from running to stopping. The action button is disabled, until I manually restart ...

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but with a relaxed implementation it should be acceptable to use the same DKIM signature for different domains from what I've understood about it and with the appropriate DMARC setup it should still work, it may not be "aligned" but it'll be accepted. Is that co...

To me for this to work, would require two separate signatures, one for the Domain, and another for the Domain Alias...

I can't see that this would be easily achieved

I don't think you need separate signature. When Google mail does DKIM signing on behalf of other domains it uses it's own key.

But isn't DKIM domain dependent, won't you need a separate certificate for each domain name? I believe it is allowed to have it sign multiple domains with a single key. There are two types of DKIM alignments, relaxed and strict. So yes it would be okay to use the same key for all domains in a relax...

A little cross posting here. If you're interested in this feature to allow DKIM signature for alias domains please vote here

Thank you. Is this a challenging feature to implement?

I vote for this feature also. Been bumping my head to understand why it wasn't signing emails with an alias domain

I too would like to vote for this feature. It's quite challenging that I have two domains being hosted by a single hMailServer instance but only one is getting a DKIM signature. I'm guessing the question is: Would you like hMailServer to DKIM sign alias domains? [poll] - Yes - No [/poll] EDIT: Hmm, ...
