[CPANEL-20545] Exim sending email (-53) retry time not reached for any host
I have a problem with some domain in WHM for sending email, only a few special domain names can not send email to any host(Gmail,Yahoo,...) (it is possible to receive)
But other domains are correct and there is no problem sending
Exim log:

Hello @locki, Are you able to connect to Gmail over port 25 using telnet on your server's command line? For example: telnet alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25
It's possible your hosting provider has blocked outgoing traffic over port 25 to Gmail, in which case you'd need to contact them to request they lift that restriction. Thank you.0 -

Hi, Yes I get connected to alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com This problem occurred only for some domains and there is no possibility to send email not just Gmail but also the other emails (email@anotherdomain.com,Outlook ) Other domains on the server work and emails are well sent...0 -
We are experiencing this issue also, spread across multiple servers and different domains. This is not limited to gmail, but happens to multiple domains for example: mail-tester. com. 0 -
Hello, It looks like the initial log output only shows the connection failure. Can you let us know the full output from /var/log/exim_mainlog for one of the affected messages? EX: exigrep SUBJECT /var/log/exim_mainlog
Replace SUBJECT with the subject of a message that's unable to send to a remote server. Thank you.0 -

Hello, Can you browse to WHM >> Service Configuration >> Exim Configuration Manager >> Basic Editor and let us know how the following options are configured? Send mail from account's dedicated IP address Reference /etc/mailhelo for outgoing SMTP HELO Reference /etc/mailips for outgoing SMTP connections Thank you. 0 -

Hi cPanelMichael, Send mail from account's dedicated IP address : ON Reference /etc/mailhelo for outgoing SMTP HELO : OFF Reference /etc/mailips for outgoing SMTP connections : OFF When i changed Send mail from account's dedicated IP address to OFF the problem was fixed and emails were sent. What is the root cause of this problem? Thank you for your response.0 -
Hello, Internal case CPANEL-20545 is open to address an issue where the /etc/mailhelo file is incorrectly populated with a reseller's domain name in cases where account's are assigned a dedicated IP address and owned by a reseller. This happens with the following option is enabled in WHM >> Service Configuration >> Exim Configuration Manager >> Basic Editor: Send mail from account's dedicated IP address I'll monitor the case and update this thread once it's published. In the meantime, the workaround is to temporarily disable the following option in WHM >> Service Configuration >> Exim Configuration Manager >> Basic Editor: Send mail from account"s dedicated IP address Then, if you want to modify which IP address Exim uses for sending emails until a solution is published, you'd need to follow the instructions documented on the following link: 0 -
Hello @locki, It's also possible this relates to another case, CPANEL-20348, where the /etc/mailips file is incorrectly populated with the IP address associated with the ethernet device configured with the The ethernet device onto which new IP addresses are added option in WHM >> Basic WebHost Manager" Setup instead of with the main shared IP address configured for the The IPv4 address (only one address) to use to set up shared IPv4 virtual hosts option. Can you verify if that's the case on the affected system? Thank you. 0 -

Hi @cPanelMichael, When I ON the settings again Send mail from account's dedicated IP address and check mailips file The domain was not on that list. I manually added domain to mailips and mailhelo So then the problem was resolved and emails were sent Do not do this automatically? Thank you.0 -
Hello @locki, The /etc/mailips file should be automatically populated with domain names that are assigned dedicated IP addresses upon enabling the Send mail from account's dedicated IP address option. Are you sure domain names on your system are assigned dedicated IP addresses? If not, it's normal for the file to remain blank. Thank you. 0
