    when i try to send an email to Gmail i get this response, which means that postfix tends to look for gmail server in loop-back network. this will fail always. response is below

    sendmail [email protected] <"tst"
    <[email protected]>: connect to localhost[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused

    when i use what-if-mode , postfix will actually go and search for gmail server and finds it, and confirm the deliverablity of this email. response is below:

    sendmail -bv [email protected] <"test"
    Dec 5 10:57:52 blade postfix/smtp[15906]: [ID 197553 mail.info] 6447958DA: to=<[email protected]>, relay=gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[173.194.67.27]:25, delay=1.8, delays=0.08/0.03/1.5/0.26, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 OK u8si15432094wiw.9)

    Are there any errors in your mail log (in the /var/log/ directory)?

    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tapn
    ?
