Topic awaiting preservation: My mail server is stuffed :( (Page 1 of 1)

Hi All,

I was playing with phpmailer yesterday, and was sending it to roughly 1,000 various emails i have, mostly dud ones with the same domain so my catcher got them anyway. Anyhoo it was working great besides the occasional timeout.

But... i changed my script so that after each mail it sent i put SmptClose(); which i thought was right, but it was meant to be Mail->smtpClose(); to close that object.

Now i cant recieve any emails from my server or send emails from my server!!

Anyone have any idea why this might be? I sent out 2.4k emails to myself with this modified script and they all returned as sent successfully but i never got them, and still havnt.

Any ideas? Thanks..


p.s im on virtual hosting with about 10 domains currently, and now none of the domains can get mail!

Either the mail server died and went away, or it blacklisted you for 'spamming'. Get in contact with your host.
