Not getting system/root mail?
When I first had my VPS set up, I was getting nightly emails, such as from upcp, anacron, etc. However, in the past month I've completely stopped getting them. I can see from /var/cpanel/updatelogs that the upcp cron job still seems to be running, and yet I'm not getting the nightly output email. I am pretty sure I have everything configured correctly on my end (although I'm attaching screenshots of what I'm guessing are the applicable sections of WHM), but am concerned about why these emails stopped. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello :) Do you notice any output in /var/log/exim_mainlog for the root contact? EX: exigrep user@domain /var/log/exim_mainlog

Thank you.
I'm guessing you didn't want me to actually use "user@domain", right? But wasn't sure what to put in there as a search string instead. I tried just using "root" (without quotations) and got a ton of output, but most recent looks like this:+++ 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 has not completed +++ 2014-11-16 22:02:54 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 <= <> R=1XqCab-0001hm-O7 U=mailnull P=local S=1547 T="Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender" for root@.com 2014-11-16 22:02:56 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 ** root@.com R=dkim_lookuphost T=dkim_remote_smtp X=TLSv1.2:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:256: SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<> SIZE=2607: host .com [173.236.66.164]: 550 "REJECTED - Bad HELO - Host impersonating [.com]" 2014-11-16 22:02:56 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Frozen (delivery error message) 2014-11-16 22:29:05 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-16 23:29:05 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 00:29:05 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 01:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 02:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 03:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 04:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 05:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 06:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 07:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 08:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 09:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 10:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 11:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 12:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 13:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 14:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen 2014-11-17 15:29:08 1XqCac-0001hu-Q6 Message is frozen
I just replaced the actual domains in the above code with Could this be because the VPS is configured to use one domain, but I haven't actually attached that domain to the VPS yet?? Thanks!0 -
Instead of "root", search for the email address that you have configured as the "root" contact address in "WHM Home " Server Contacts " Edit System Mail Preferences". Thank you. 0 -
Just tried - the stuff that I see when I use my configured email address are emails that are actually making it to me, such as: SSH root login (which is configured in my shell I believe) CHKROOTKIT nightly scan result emails Softaculous software update emails I don't see anything relating to the upcp emails or anything else out of the ordinary? 0 -
