Bill Tj Posted October 21, 2011 Author Posted October 21, 2011 Thank you for finding the problem with Gmail. Regarding the e-mail problem with http://www.ruby-forum.com/, it is tough as there are no indications at all. I registered with them, but I never received any e-mail.
Wizard Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 Looks like it might be a permissions problem (akin to the ones we've been having lately): http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/li...ailable-857797/ Don't have time to investigate right this moment, feel like taking point, xaav?
Bill Tj Posted October 22, 2011 Author Posted October 22, 2011 Is it working now? Hey, it is working now! Wow! You guys are so amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Wizard Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 @Bill Tj: Welcome --- Glad your problem got solved! Please spare a few minutes to take our brief survey: http://feedback.heliohost.org/ Your participation in this survey is greatly appreciated. --- @xaav: Nice! Was it the permissions?
Guest xaav Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 @xaav: Nice! Was it the permissions? The "mailnull" account could not access the SSL certificates, so I chmoded them to 666.
Wizard Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 @xaav: Nice! Was it the permissions? The "mailnull" account could not access the SSL certificates, so I chmoded them to 666. I modified it to 640 for security. Does it still work? EDIT: Exim didn't seem to like that. Reverted.
