Looking at the /var/log/maillog file I can see one confirmation of an email going out to the administrators account and then on it just keeps repeating the below for event time I try to send an email:

vmx sendmail (1189): starting daemon (8.13.8): SMTP+queueing@01:00:00

vmx sm-msp-queue(1897): starting daemon (8.13.8) queueing@01:00:00

python /home/openemm/bin/scripts/pickdist.py

is listed when typing in ps -u openemm -f

and the /home/openemm/var/log/<date>-<host>-pickdist.log says:

Starting up

Not sure what to do know as I have no idea whats wrong?

Thanks

I also notice that this message seems to also appear in the maillog after it stopped working and after every attempt to send an emal

vmx sendmail (2246): unable to write pid to /home/openemm/var/run/sendmail-openemm-admin.pid: Permission Denied

Although the link provided earlier says not to worry about this it only started after the problem occured?

Looks like I have found out what the problem is and that was that I was using Agnitas-tag that was not recognise in the email!

Simple in the end :)

We have to admit that the HTML parser should better check the syntax of all agn tags. I'll put it on our todo list!
