I can send/receive email from within the server. I can send email out. But no emails can get in. What is the problem? I already disabled spamassassin, all firewalls, even ACL, but emails are still not getting to the server. Exim log gives this error: About 48 hours after email is sent, the email bounce back with this error from server:

Did you restart your mail server after the changes were made to your configuration? Also to upgrade exim use the command /scripts/eximup

Also make sure your port for incoming mail is open on the server.

This person at another forum had the same problem as me, I tried what he did and it is still not working. Port 25 is open. http://forums.cpanel.net/f43/apparen...xim-67230.html

well u should check for port 110 (pop) since that is the one of incoming email 25 (smtp) is for sending email, if u are using pop of course. i think the problem might be there, comment the acl then restart exim, then try again, see if the log is the same.

hi, exim doesnt understand 1e+36K in ACL just edit /etc/exim.conf and change 1e+36K to some reasonable size btw 200k it is the cpanel default settings

So I should edit it from 1e+36K to 1e+200K ?
