Managing mail with MMDF

Mail does not work, no returned mail

If mail does not reach its destination but MMDF does not return unsent mail, either deliver(ADM) is not running properly, or the mmdftailor(F) file contains an error. See ``Customizing mail delivery'' for information about the deliver daemon.

Check to see that deliver is running using ps -ef. If deliver is not running, use this procedure:

  1. Log in as mmdf.

  2. Start the deliver daemon manually with the following commands:

    /usr/mmdf/bin/daemon stop
    /usr/mmdf/bin/daemon start

    This starts deliver sweeping the mail queues in the background every 60 seconds. For more information, see the deliver(ADM) manual page.

  3. If running deliver manually does not work, verify that your domain, channel, and /usr/mmdf/mmdftailor files are set up correctly.
