If you have done a fresh install then you will need to tell us what you have done. We won't know unless you give details. > I no longer get logcheck emails, for example. Saying "no longer" implies that it worked previously. But you said you did a fresh installation. At the point that you do a fresh installation then there is not any "before". Life of the machine begins at installation time. Nothing on the machine exists before that time. There is no before. Do you get any email? What MTA are you using? How is emailed delivered to you? Are you reading it locally or remotely? What MUA are you using to read the mail? What errors exist in the /var/log/syslog? It will take more than twenty questions to get all of the information. Best if you simply start at the beginning and proceed through from there. > The other one, also maybe around exim4, root, involves spamassasin. How are you running spamassassin? There are many ways to run spamassassin. Each way is uniquely different. > That upgraded a couple of days ago Upgrade? You said fresh install.

But then I sold it and bought another car. But it isn't working now. I have no idea what is wrong. What do you think is wrong with it? If you don't have any idea what is wrong with my car and wonder how would you possibly know with such little information then that is exactly where we are with your problems too. Please read through your message again. Note specifically what details you give us. Ask yourself this question. Is there enough information there for anyone to be able to help you? I think you will agree that if you don't give any details then it is isn't any way for anyone else to help you either. Start small. Work on the smallest piece of the problem you can isolate. Bob
