I’ve just moved my blog to DO and I got problem with Wordpress notification email. Usually I got notification email if someone post a comment, but after move to DO there is no email at all.
The weird part is, I try change my email address using my domain and it works (eg: myname@example.com), usually I use yahoo and gmail and this not work anymore. Can someone solve this :( I’m so frustrated.
I read this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/wordpress-email-notifications but doesn’t work cause when I entered this command line “dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config” appear “-bash: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found”
FYI I use CentOS.
Wish someone can solve my problem :(
thank you

After googling and searching I found out this
My exim log file when I try to send email using this command
echo “I’m Testing My Server” | mail -s “Test” myemail@yahoo.com
Then on log file:
2014-08-28 02:37:46 1XMtL8-00074n-I5 <= root@myhostname U=root P=local S=453 2014-08-28 02:37:48 1XMtL8-00074n-I5 ** myemail@yahoo.com R=dnslookup T=remo$ 2014-08-28 02:37:48 1XMtLA-00074q-S5 <= <> R=1XMtL8-00074n-I5 U=exim P=local S=$ 2014-08-28 02:37:48 1XMtL8-00074n-I5 Completed 2014-08-28 02:37:48 1XMtLA-00074q-S5 ** root@myhostname: Unrouteable address 2014-08-28 02:37:48 1XMtLA-00074q-S5 Frozen (delivery error message)
Then googling again how to resolve “Unrouteable address” found out this article: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17351634/unrouteable-address-with-exim4
And I enter this command “hostname” appear myhostname but when I try to enter “hostname -i” appear “hostname: Unknown host”
I believe this is the culprit, I’m newbie on linux and dunno how to change this :(
thank you
Thanks for your reply, I’m newbie in this vps and linux world, all I do is copy paste :D Will try your instruction, but before that I’d like to ask one more question.
I use CentOS and install Webuzo as my panel, and webuzo provide Exim for mail server, is it okay if install Postfix also? I’d like to configure the exim but don’t how to configure it. Thx
Hi, dpk-reconfigure is Debian command, not CentOS. On your CentOS run command “yum install postfix”, then “chkconfig postfix on” and “/etc/init.d/postfix start”.
