    MX Record

    in Website Management and Coding

    Posted

    I've changed the MX-Record of my domain "fpetit.heliohost.org" to analyze what would happen, but I got this when I try to find the MX record externally when I send an e-mail to federico@fpetit.heliohost.org

     

    Validation results

    confidence rating: 2 - DNS

    The email address passed this level of validation

    before the validation stopped due to the error below.

    This does not indicate a problem with the address, but

    it does not guarantee a good address, either. more info

    error at level 3: UnfavorableReplyCode - SMTP server returned an unfavorable reply code, preventing further progress.

    As you can see, the MX record hasn't seemed to have changed, but SMTP gives an error. :wacko:

    Port 25 (SMTP)

    As far as I know,

    Heliohost shouldn't be blocking port25.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

     

    There's no other explanation. The script is correct and has no errors. A year ago this same script worked fine on Heliohost. Evidently they made some changes.

     

    Fsockopen CANNOT open a connection on port 25.

    Port 25 (SMTP)

    in Website Management and Coding

    Posted

    I've written a PHP script, with no errors, and I cannot conect to ANY SMTP server using port 25. My script gives the error "Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to mail.heliohost.org:25 (Connection timed out)"

     

    The problem is NOT related to the server mail.heliohost.org, but to any other one.

     

    Does anyone know what is going on?

     

    Thank you in advance.

    The bouncing emails are automatically replied to the sender. I suggest you add a bogus reply-to header.

     

    but all of a sudden it started working!
    I recompiled Apache/PHP yesterday - that's probably what did it.

     

     

    Well :rolleyes: Thanks!

     

    I don't know what a bogus reply is.

    I fear it might be. Try placing it back into the public_html directory and then pointing your pipe towards it there. If that doesn't work, place it in the public_html/cgi-bin directory and let me know if that works.

     

     

    Well, I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden it started working!. It seems there was huge delay with your SMTP server.

     

    I also noticed that I can use PHPMailer, which is good for my application.

     

    Anyway, I still receiving the bouncing e-mails.

    The files are in the HOME directory.

    How do you know if it executes when you can't access it through the web in order to execute it? You've put the file in a directory inaccessible to Apache.

     

    :) I executed in the WWW directory, the I moved it to the root. That's not the point.

    How much can you comment out before PHP throws the error? It seems the PHP is searching for an extension that we don't provide.

     

     

    Well, the PHP is quite simple. It executes fine in your server. The problem comes when is executed by the piping method.

    Hello.

    I've recently installed a PHP script, which works fine, to be executed when an e-mail comes.

    Unfortunatelly when I send an e-mail to the address that was forwarded to the script, I get this error:

     

    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:

The following text was generated during the delivery attempt:

    The script to be executed is:

$email = "";

}
fclose($fd);
// handle email

// empty vars
$from = "";
$subject = "";
$headers = "";
$message = "";
$splittingheaders = true;
for ($i=0; $i < count($lines); $i++) {
    if(trim($lines[$i])=="") {
        // empty line, header section has ended
        $splittingheaders = false;
    }
    if($splittingheaders) {
        // this is a header
        $headers .= $lines[$i]."\n";
        // look out for special headers
        if (preg_match("/^Subject: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {
        $subject = $matches[1];
        }
        if (preg_match("/^From: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {
        $from = $matches[1];
        }
    } else {
        // not a header, but message
        $message .= $lines[$i]."\n";
    }
}
// $from1=strpos($from,'<')+1;
// $from2=strpos($from,'>',$from1);
// $from3=substr($from,$from1,$from2-$from1);
//Only for WLM
if (strpos(strtolower($from),'alert@mobile.live.com')!==false) {
    $message2=strpos($message,' ');
    $msncontact=substr($message,0,$message2);
    $cntpos=strpos($message,'):')+2;
        if (strpos(strtolower($msncontact),'[hotmail]')!==false) {
            $from='';
        } else {
            $message=$msncontact.substr($message,$cntpos);
            $from='WLM Alert';
        }
}
//Only for Y! Alert
if (strpos(strtolower($from),'y-alerts@reply.yahoo.com')!==false) {
    $from='Y!Alert';
}
// Insertamos PHPMailer
$subject='Hola';
$message='Este es el mensaje. Debe llegar a tu cuenta de Yahoo!';
$to      = 'federicopetit@yahoo.com.ar';
$subject = 'the subject';
$message = 'hello';
$headers = 'From: webmaster@personal.com.ar' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: webmaster@personal.com.ar' . "\r\n" .
    'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
return;
?>

     

    As you can see I also included the hashbag at the beginning of the code. The script has 755 permission to be executed.

     

     

    Thanks for your help

    Your piping is not working because according to your forwarding command it looks like its not using the php app.

     

     

    Hope this should solve your problem :)

     

     

    As I had told in the original post, the forwarding to the script IS working. The only problem is the nonsense bouncing e-mail.

    Hmm? If the script is not in your DocRoot (public_HTML/www), then how were you able to test it to confirm that it works properly?

     

     

    The script captures the email and sends it to an SMS gateway to my cellphone. I'm receiving the emails in my phone, so the script and the piping is working. What it's senseless is the bouncing with NO error message.

    The user executing the script is not a member of your group. Just set it to 777, and give me the URL. Don't worry; with open_basedir and suPHP it's not much of a security risk to set permissions to 777.

     

     

    The e-mail keeps bouncing

    I'm not quite sure about the functionality of that feature... what I would do is find some forums that deal with such stuff, find out what's going on by asking there, and if you need me to check or change anything just let me know.

     

    I found very little about email piping on the internet. Very few report problems with piping to script, but in those cases there is an error message that usually is related to a configuration in the server. In my case, there's no error message. The e-mail just bounce. :unsure:

    Hello,

    Your cPANEL offers the possibility to forward an e-mail to a script. I'm using this service and it's working fine...but the mails send there bounce with the following legend:

     

    pipe to |/home/fpetit/email.php

    generated by flp@fpetit.heliohost.org

    local delivery failed

     

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

     

    As you can see there is no message error. The PHP script executes fine without errors, so I don't have idea why this is happening.

     

    Thank you
