Weirdly, this isn't cover so i might as well just write it down here. If you have MailScanner installed on your cPanel, the best thing to do after you've made a changes is to restart the service, but you'll find out that MailScanner isn't around as a service. So to restart cPanel as a services, you'll need to restart via cPanel script
/scripts/restartsrv mailscanner
and you'll see something like this,
-bash-4.1# /scripts/restartsrv mailscanner Waiting for “mailscanner” to restart …………………………………………waiting for “mailscanner” to initialize ……………………………… …finished. Service Status Checking MailScanner daemons: 2049 2050 2111 2264 The service “mailscanner” failed to start with the message: Checking MailScanner daemons: 2049 2050 2111 2264 Log Messages Jul 28 14:37:23 chopper MailScanner: MailScanner setting UID to mailnull (47) Jul 28 14:37:48 chopper MailScanner: Deleted 1 messages from processing-database Jul 28 14:37:47 chopper MailScanner: Uninfected: Delivered 1 messages Jul 28 14:37:47 chopper MailScanner: Delivery of nonspam: message 1ZJyQp-0007At-KW from [email protected] to [email protected] with subject [Emporium Blog 2] Please moderate: "Paypal Utilizes Credit Card Machinery for Malaysians to Withdraw Funds" mailscanner has failed.
