Обсуждение: Mail.postgresql.org is on the fritz
All, Having two issues with mail.postgresql.org: (1) Sending mail via authenticated SMTP through mail.postgresql.org hasn't been possible for months. (2) for the last few weeks, it's been impossible to send mail using the webmail (Horde) interface. (3) mail.postgresql.org is (as of today) now erroring out when I send messages via third-party SMTP and try to copy stuff to the "sent" folder. Overall, it seems like mail.postgresql.org is breaking down. Who's running it? -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com

This has broken so many times that I've given up on it; I just use a 3rd-party SMTP server. It'll work for a month, then break again. I only mentioned it because it might be related to the other failures. FWIW, the problem seems to be authentication. The mailserver is answering, but always fails authentication. > 2. have to test this one later tonight ... > > 3. try now, just restarted the imap server ... not expecting it to fix > it, honestly, but if not, then I'll run through some tests on my account > and make sure its working ... Looks like you fixed sending mail. Sent without error from webmail, and received. Thanks! -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com
