Ever since I upgraded the disk space on my Gentoo Linode, I've had trouble sending e-mail from it. I can connect to the SMTP port or use the sendmail command (the one that came with Postfix) just fine, but when I check the mailq, each queued message remains with the following error:
Code: (connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
This also means that PHP is unable to send any e-mail (which is bad, since this Linode in particular is running a server uptime monitoring service).

This is my Postfix main.cf:

Is your lo loop-back network device configured?

Wouldn't that also hinder my ability to do this?

Problem with your content filter?

If not, what does the mail.log file say when delivery is attempted.

Silly me, I forgot to check what the logs sid :oops:

I found this in mail.log:

Code: Jan 10 03:46:07 edison postfix/smtp[8543]: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused (port 10024)
So, I tried to restart:

Code: edison ~ # /etc/init.d/amavisd restart
 * Caching service dependencies...                                   [ ok ]
 * Stopping amavisd-new ...
start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 1035: No such process     [ !! ]
Resetting it to stopped state (using /etc/init.d/amavisd zap), I started it again, and now it's delivering mail again, like it's supposed to. :)

Seems like all I needed, was a nudge in the right direction... Thanks, guys!
