I’m getting this in my logs sometimes… and since POP email is working, I can’t guess what’s up.
Job exception: getaddrinfo: No address associated with hostname
If we could get more details logged… what server was being looked up, maybe which dns was consulted, and if all 5 errors happened at 1:50pm (see attached), it could make troubleshooting easier.
TIA
This is a DNS lookup / resolution error.
This is probably just a transient error (i.e. it will go away on it’s own).
To check you can resolve (nslookup
) the mail directly at the command line for each of your DNS servers.
Another possible causes are:
- connection / availability of your DNS server at the time.
- DNS configuration issues with your POP3 provider.
The only real chance of a bug is if the wrong POP3 server name / address gets down to this level in the code - which seems unlikely if it’s working at other times.
It might be good to know what hostname it’s looking up, but unlikely to help.
