Hi,

My DirectAdmin server can no longer send e-mail out.
All mail comes back with "Unrouteable address".

Here's a sample NDR:
-----------------------------------------
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

someaddressl@somedomain.com
Unrouteable address

------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------

This is the Exim log: (/var/log/exim/mainlog)

2004-02-24 09:49:37 1AvYG1-0003kw-30 Completed

Anyone any ideas?

Hi,

The problem is solved.

I tried: exim -d -bt address@domain.com

That made it clear that there was a DNS error.

Further investigation tought me that my provider pulled the plugs on thier name servers. (Without warning or notice.)

I changed the name servers in /etc/resolv.conf and everything works now!
