Error : 111 Can’t open SMTP stream – SquirrelMail

ERROR:
Message not sent. Server replied:
Connection refused
111 Can’t open SMTP stream. 
Solutions:
> Cpanel version of SquirrelMail does not work.
1) config for Squirrelmail:
/usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/squirrelmail/config/config.php
I just changed:
$useSendmail = false;
to:
$useSendmail = true;
2)Enabling the SMTP tweak:
It is likely related to an iptables rule used to deny connections from those other than exim, mailman and root. Turning the SMTP Tweak on and then off should recreate this rule correctly.
Main >> Security Center >> SMTP Tweak
3) Editing the CSF conf:
# Block outgoing SMTP except for root, exim and mailman (forces scripts/users
# to use the exim/sendmail binary instead of sockets access). This replaces the
# protection as WHM > Tweak Settings > SMTP Tweaks. This will block hosting
# clients from using your server as an SMTP relay
SMTP_BLOCK = 1
# If SMTP_BLOCK is enabled but you want to allow local connections to port 25
# on the server (e.g. for web scripts) then enable this option too
SMTP_ALLOWLOCAL = 1
Out of these three , one will work for sure.

RAID

Check the Raid installed lspci | grep RAID     Software Raid ============== Linux Support For Software RAID Currently, Linux supports the following RAID levels (quoting from the man page): LINEAR RAID0 (striping) RAID1 (mirroring) RAID4 RAID5 RAID6 RAID10 MULTIPATH, and FAULTY. MULTIPATH is not a Software RAID mechanism, but does involve multiple devices: each device is a path to one common physical storage device. FAULTY is also not true RAID, and it only involves one device. It provides a layer over a true device that can be used to inject faults. Install mdadm Type the following command under RHEL / CentOS / Fedora Linux: # yum install mdadm Type the following command under Debian / Ubuntu Linux: # apt-get update && apt-get install mdadm How Do I Create RAID1 Using mdadm? Type the following command to create RAID1 using /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdd1 (20GB size each). First run fdisk on /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd with " Softwa...
