Well, its a new week and I guess its time for a new problem, my server thought :(.
This time I have no clear idea of what is going wrong. I checked the logs and the only strange thing I get is this:
Aug 13 14:33:07 vps590 postfix/postqueue[31897]: warning: Mail system is down -- accessing queue directly
I am not able to recieve mail, but I do not get a delivery failed message when I try to send something to myself via my gmail account. I am not able to send anything, I get a SMTP connection failed message. Webmail login is still working normally.
I did the hostname lookup, and that is still working normally as well. That is why I am completly lost. What can I do, reinstall the Postfix server?
The system is CentOS 6 64bit, running on Linux kernel 3.2.
Howdy,
What is the output of these two commands:
rpm -qa | grep postfix
postconf -n
Hopefully those will shed some light on what's going on!

Thanks again Eric :).
Hmm, I don't see any obvious problems with that.
Can you try running this command:
/etc/init.d/postfix restart
And after that, take a peek in /var/log/maillog to see if any errors show up?
-Eric
And it works again for now ;). The restart in PuTTy probably did the job. It acted a bit strange at first, it said [failed] at restart twice, but the third time it did restart normally.
I only restarted it via the virtualmin GUI before.
