Exim error after 3.203 update

Hi,

after updating to 3.203 the following error is displayed in the SMTP relay logs:

Aug 7 11:35:36 firewall exim[32681]: 2002-08-07 11:35:36 17cNE8-0008V6-00 failed to open DB file /spool/db/wait-remote_smtp: File exists

It seems that Exim is still able to deliver messages but the error worries me.

Hello ASTARO Team,

after upgrading two ASTARO boxes to 3.203 we have even more problems with the SMTP Proxy:
as soon as the content control is active (virus protection or file expression filter) all mails "hang" in the smtp mail queue. They can only be dequeued manually.
Without any content control the mails are delivered automatically.
Because in 3.202 it worked, we think it's a (serious) bug in 3.203!

Ok, just after posting I saw that you already fixed it in 3.204!

There is something still wrong with the SMTP proxy server. I can no longer send email through the server, nor recieve email through the server. This began just after I did the 3.203 update. I noticed the 3.204 update and performed that, still broken however the smtp server will start now. but whenever I try to send an email through the server I just get the message connection closed on my internal smtp server. Astaro shows no activety whatsover in the logs.

Same sort of problems over here. I did all the recent updates and the SMTP proxy died since then. It's enabled in the proxy menu. I have a mailserver behind the firewall wich has the following in the log:

@400000003d566df71525910c delivery 1612: deferral: Connected_to_192.168.1.1_but_connection_died._(#4.4.2)/

192.168.1.1 is my Astaro box. The config worked for several months now. I did not alter the config, just did the updates.

Hmmm - same here although I haven't spotted much in the way of error messages. The SMTP proxy has failed and is no longer even visible from the internet although the port is still open - it doesn't respond with anything.

Hmm - I too have had to make some temporary changes and now bypass the smtp proxy.

as I read in the announcement for 3.207 there seems to be a problem with Pentium1/K6.. maybe this solves your problem?
