SMTP authentication failed, curl problem ?

[iXô]

Hello,

there was a problem on my old v5 installation that was really annoying, so I tryied to test v6RC1.

But it is still here : I can't send a mail.

Here are the log from zimbra.log :

So it seems that curl can't find the host mail.kawaiyume.net ???

I can solve the problem, with a zmcontrol stop/start, but some times after (can be few minutes, to 1 day) I still can't send a mail

Any idea ?

Today I got the same problem.
Can you tell me any solution about it?

You may have hit this bug: Bug 32613 – OSX 10.5: Directory services cache corruption Unfortunately, as you can see from the bug report, this is an Apple problem and is still unresolved by them.

My server is CentOS Linux 5.3 but has the same problem.

Yes and that's why your post(s) shouldn't be in this thread as they have nothing to do with the problem mentioned here.
