Hi, I can help fully install and stabilize MailChannels on your WHM/cPanel server. I’ve worked with: * MailChannels relay integration * Exim configuration * WHM/cPanel mail routing * SPF, DKIM, DMARC setup * Email deliverability troubleshooting From your description, the issue is likely related to Exim smart host settings being overwritten or not properly integrated with cPanel’s configuration rebuild process. I can fix this so the configuration persists correctly after reboots and cPanel updates. What I’ll do: * Configure MailChannels SMTP relay correctly * Fix Exim routing and authentication * Ensure settings survive updates/restarts * Verify outbound delivery * Configure/check SPF, DKIM, DMARC * Test deliverability to Gmail/Outlook * Troubleshoot queue or relay issues I’ll also review logs and mail flow to make sure MailChannels is properly handling outbound traffic with no hidden routing problems. Estimated completion: Usually completed within a few hours depending on the current server state. I can start immediately. Best,

Hello, I can see the real issue here isn’t just installing MailChannels , it’s making sure WHM/Exim keeps the relay settings stable after reboots and cPanel updates, without breaking outgoing mail. That’s exactly the kind of deliverability problem I handle on dedicated cPanel servers. I’ve configured MailChannels, Exim, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and SMTP routing on Linux/WHM environments, and I know how to resolve the common smarthost settings not saving issue by checking the Exim templates, cPanel service hooks, and server-side overrides. I’ll review your current setup, correct the relay integration, verify outbound mail flow, and test deliverability end-to-end. I’ve shared an initial estimate based on your description, and once we go over a few technical or functional details, I’ll confirm the exact cost and delivery schedule. I can start immediately and should be able to complete this in 1 day, depending on what’s already been applied on the server. Have you already made any custom Exim template changes or is the issue limited to WHM’s smarthost/MailChannels settings not persisting? Thanks, Asad

Hi! I can help you with getting MailChannels properly configured on your cPanel server. The smarthost settings not saving is usually an Exim config conflict, often a hook file getting overwritten by WHM. I'd fix that first, then set up the SMTP relay routing, get your SPF and DKIM records aligned with MailChannels, and make sure the config persists through updates using cPanel's custom hooks. I'm Edward, 10+ years working with Linux servers and mail delivery setups. Can start on this right away. Let me know if you want to discuss.

Hello I can fully resolve your MailChannels setup and stabilize your Exim + WHM configuration so outgoing email routing works reliably through the relay without breaking on updates or reboots. Since you already attempted the setup and WHM is not retaining smarthost settings, I’ll focus on fixing the root-level Exim configuration rather than just applying surface-level changes. I’ve worked extensively on cPanel/WHM servers with MailChannels integration, including troubleshooting delivery routing issues, broken Exim templates, SPF/DKIM alignment, and ensuring persistent configuration across updates. I’ll properly configure SMTP relay through MailChannels, validate authentication, and ensure deliverability is optimized and stable. Once done, I’ll test outbound mail flow, verify headers, and ensure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are correctly aligned so your emails don’t land in spam. I’ll also make sure the setup remains persistent after reboots and cPanel updates. Turnaround: typically 1 day depending on server state Fixed price: can be finalized after quick server check Portfolio: https://www.freelancer.pk/u/salahuddin1973 I can start immediately and first identify why WHM is not saving your current configuration before applying the corrected MailChannels integration.

Your WHM smarthost settings not saving — that's usually one of three gremlins: a malformed Exim custom transport in the Advanced Editor, a WHM feature lock or config overlay, or a post-save hook that reverts routes. I've untangled this exact issue twice before; I'll systematically isolate it first, then apply the correct MailChannels relay config. Approach: backup current Exim config, check Advanced Editor for leftover custom routers/transports that block smart host, test the smarthost save via WHM API to isolate UI bugs, then lay down the MailChannels transport with DKIM signing keys aligned. SPF/DKIM/DMARC tightened last, with deliverability testing via MXToolbox. Clarification: did you already obtain the MailChannels account and relay credentials, or is that pending? The config needs them to complete. Budget is tight, but since the core install is done and the issue is a targeted fix, I can deliver the full debug + config + DNS alignment in one session, including reboot/cPanel update survival, for a fixed price within your range. Ready to start immediately — direct SSH access will speed things up.

Hi! I am an experienced system administrator with a strong background in email deliverability, particularly with MailChannels, cPanel/WHM, and Exim on Linux servers. I specialize in ensuring that email systems are configured correctly for optimal deliverability. Could you please provide more details about the specific issues you encountered during your previous installation attempts? Additionally, do you have any particular preferences for testing deliverability? In a previous project, I successfully configured MailChannels on a client's dedicated server, where I resolved similar configuration issues that were preventing proper SMTP routing. I utilized meticulous troubleshooting to ensure that all settings were saved correctly in WHM and performed extensive testing to verify deliverability. For your project, I can install and configure MailChannels, ensure that Exim is set up correctly, and implement SPF, DKIM, and DMARC as needed. I will also test the setup thoroughly and ensure it's robust against reboots and updates. Let’s chat to discuss your requirements further and ensure we get your email deliverability issues resolved promptly! Best regards, Heindrick

Hi, I've worked with cPanel/WHM + Exim setups and this is a known issue — the smarthost configuration in WHM doesn't always persist correctly without a manual Exim config edit alongside it. That's almost certainly what's happening here. What I'll do: ✔ Install & configure MailChannels relay properly ✔ Edit Exim config directly to ensure routing sticks ✔ Set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records correctly ✔ Test outgoing deliverability end-to-end ✔ Verify the config survives reboot and cPanel updates ✔ Fix any errors that come up during the process My experience: Linux server admin, cPanel/WHM, Exim, DNS/email deliverability setup on dedicated servers. Timeline: Done within a few hours of getting root access. Can you share which step exactly fails when you try to save in WHM smarthost settings? That'll help me confirm the fix before we start.
