Email problems...

[Matt Scoggins]

I can't get into my REW email. This is the message I get:

Sorry for the inconvience!
The filesystem mounted at / on this server is running out of disk space. cPanel operation has been temporarily suspended to prevent something bad from happening. Please ask your system admin to remove any files not in use on that partition.

There is a bug in the latest version of Cpanel that is causing this mail issue. I have been working on it.

you can still access your email (to send) with WEBSITE/webmail and your full email address and password to log in.

For some reason this bug only seems to affect users of outlook. It does not affect users of thunderbird.

I'm having the same problem here.

I can get into my outlook, and I can receive emails, but nothing is sending.

What I've ended up doing is having them all queue in the Outbox and hopefully they send out when the bug is fixed.

Mine seems to be working now.

George suggested I use 'shawmail' as my outgoing mail server temporarily until it works and it has been for me so far.

But if yours is working now, I guess there is nothing to worry about :P

Yes, a workaround is to use your ISP's outgoing mail server to send mail instead of your mail.WEBSITENAME server. This will circumvent the bug until I can track it down and squash it. Turns out a whole ton of people are experiencing this problem:

There is more information in the offical cpanel forums here:

but you must be registered to read it. (Not that you need to register for a cpanel account if you are not interested in it.)
