ISPCONFIG 3 -Centos 6.4 64bit Nginx squirellmain dovecot mysql mail issue

Hi all , I am new to this and helping a friend with ISPCONFIG.
The control panel on the web side is great. All works well, sites are able to perform as needed.
Problem is with the mail side of things, I can connect with a mail client to the server and it authenticates.
I can't however see any new mail coming in nor connect via imap to send any mail. I only connect to send via my home isp.
Checked the mail error log and not seeing any errors come up.

The webpage for example has a test page for people to subscribe and that doesnt seem to go nowhere, can anybody please assist or offer some guidance to get this mail side of the server working?

Webmail doesnt work either, I get a 404 error.

checked my hosts file

Checked my host file and seen that there was a wrong ip address.

This was fixed and restarted,
For some reason it fixed my mail receiving issue,
mail log showed messages captured from my website form mail are now going into inbox

Now my issues are using my imap to send mail and get webmail working.

 

Hi thanks for your help.

I am using outlook and the client won't allow me to connect to the server to send, I can receive emails.
Error is ...
Send test e-mail message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server.

In /var/log/maillog

Sep 10 17:30:01 server1 postfix/smtpd[9832]: lost connection after CONNECT from localhost[::1]
Sep 10 17:30:01 server1 postfix/smtpd[9832]: disconnect from localhost[::1]

 

Ok, i've worked out my isp doesn't allow port 25. I've asked my server hosting provider to open that up as well.

Thats still not gonna help me, so ill be depending on webmail mosty, however that doesnt work, i get a 404 error.
Im using nginx, squirellmail.
Any suggestions there?
