Topic: An error occurred while sending mail: The mail server sent an incorrect greeting

[erkinalkan]

Hello All,

I'm using sme server 9.2 with server-only. About two day ago I can send/receive e-mails. But today, I get an error which is "An error occurred while sending mail: The mail server sent an incorrect greeting:  Server load too high, please try again later.."
I've looked with "top" command, the cpu load is %1.

Thanks in advance.

After reconfigure and hard reset, the problem has been gone.

hi, welcome here

an high load doesn't necessarily  mean an high cpu load

to understand what's going on and how your server is working, please take a look here: https://wiki.contribs.org/Email#Load
