    Here is my setup:
    • INIZ VPS
    • Centmin Mod
    • Magento 1.9.1.0
    My cronjobs are running fine. I have installed AOE Scheduler which says that scheduling and cron heartbeats are working fine. However, my order emails are not being sent. In the 'List View' of AOE Scheduler the message area in front of the 'core_email_queue_send_all' job shows '---RETURN_VALUE--- Mage_Core_Model_Email_Queue'.


    I don't know if that's an error or its normal. Basically, I have no idea why the emails are not being sent despite crons being working fine. I suspect that it might be something related to Centminmod or the server which is not sending the emails. Any help in tracking down the issue will be highly appreciated.

    Don't use Magento so can't help with specifics.
    • But do you get any server sent emails at all ?
    • Tried some mail tester like Newsletters spam test by mail-tester.com ?
    • Has email ever worked before ? or the problem just started happening ?
    • Does Magento have any mail diagnostic tools you can run ?
    • How is email in Magento configured ? option to use 3rd party smtp servers ?

    Previously, I was running same Magento installation on OVH and emails were working fine. They havent been working since I shifted to INIZ but I thought it was due to cronjobs but now crons are also working fine.

    I added my email ID in crontab to check errors and I do get those emails so I guess its not server related?

    Magento doesnt have any diagnostic tool.

    I just checked server's mail logs. This is what they say:

    It seems like the server is sending emails but the last email was around 24 hours ago. There should have been newer emails.

    And cron log has no recent errors which means crons are running fine:

    Code:

    Feb 14 08:05:01 badass CROND[6194]: (root) CMD (! test -e /home/nginx/domains/domain.com/public/maintenance.flag && /bin/bash /home/nginx/domains/domain.com/public/scheduler_cron.sh --mode always)

    Feb 14 08:05:01 badass CROND[6212]: (root) CMD (! test -e /home/nginx/domains/domain.com/public/maintenance.flag && /bin/sh /home/nginx/domains/domain.com/public/cron.sh)
    Mar 18 15:21:06 badass crond[149]: (CRON) INFO (RANDOM_DELAY will be scaled with factor 46% if used.)
    Mar 18 15:21:06 badass crond[149]: (CRON) INFO (running with inotify support)
    
    Does this mean there is an error on the Magento's end?

    I have no idea why SendMail is running instead of PostFix. I didnt change anything in the Centmin Mod installation. Can you please guide how can I configure SendMail properly or go back to PostFix?
