Hi!! Anyone could help me? I have vpopmail and qmail working together, and few days ago, its taking long time to deliver the messages... All my virtual users, sometimes they receive the messages and sometimes donīt. At the outlook, a message appears saying that the pop3.server.com.br is unreacheable... but I can stil ping it. Do you have any idea what should be?? Nothing appears at /var/log/maillog Tks all.
