Email MTA failed

Email MTA failed
No idea why but I can't send/receive emails. MXToolbox says the ports are open but I don't get any mail in or out.

Where do I go from here?

I'm making a backup of all of my sites and MySQL databases, just in case I have to blow it all away and start over...

RE: Email MTA failed
First contact your ISP to check if port 25 is open for SENDING.

Did you check your MX are correctly setup?

service postfix status ?

You need to provide more infos if you expect help.

Port 25 is open. I'm running Sentora from a VPS on the Linode network.
My MX is set up correctly and I don't see any problem with postfix.
I ran into another crippling error (not related to sentora) so I'm just going to blow it away and rebuild the vps. If I run into the same problem again, I'll let you know.

RE: Email MTA failed
ok radical solution.... Did you install any extra packages there? Like amavis or such?

RE: Email MTA failed
I had tried replacing the default MTA with Citadel but deleted it and reverted back to the Sentora defaults. It worked for a few days after I reverted but then just stopped. At first it wouldn't let me log in from my mobile's email client then it stopped sending from my sites, then just stopped altogether.

RE: Email MTA failed
so you took definitely the citadel ride despite I warned you it won't work... Well you broke it.

You can't blame sentora over this.

RE: Email MTA failed
I wasn't blaming Sentora for anything. I was wondering where I should look to solve the problem.

I did a fresh install and re-uploaded my sites. This issue can be closed.
