Mails vanishing and not showing up in Inbox

Post by Farcaster »

I ran into a problem as some of my customers argue that mails are not getting through.
After inspection i found out that mails are vanishing during Income. They show up in all logs but not in the Inbox or in the Junk-Folder - they are just gone. Any idea?

I am running Enterprise 9.17...

The logs show the following (Example):
SMTP-Activity - LOG

Check the MTA logs and also check the MXScan (if you are using that) logs. Are you looking in the webmail or in Outlook? Have you gone to the actual user's folder (Windows Explorer) to see what is there? Sometimes the index files need to be deleted and that can make the emails come back. I also recommend that emails get archived to help trim the Inbox (and do not make subfolders from Inbox); this helps with performance and issues of emails disappearing.
