I replaced the password for one without special characters and now sending mail works too. Thanks again.
I habe the same problem like the users before, but I can't solve it with your suggestions. When I activate Amavis in main.cf I get this error: Without Amavis Postfix works fine. Can anyone help?
What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf and /etc/postfix/master.cf? What's the output of Code: netstat -tap and Code: ifconfig ?
Does this IP address match the one from the ifconfig output? I think the problem must be somewhere in your amavisd configuration.
Just to let you know, I figured out why the error was occurring, well at least for me Make sure you do not have the following in main.cf for postfix: Code: smtp_bind_address = Your.I.P.Address Not sure why it causes the problem, all I know is that once I commented the above line out, it worked like a charm
hmm..getting the same problem here. I did an apt-get install webmin, which upgraded a few files....at the end of the webmin install it told me that there was an error with amavis... apt-get install amavis Reading Package Lists...

hi. just to let you know, i fixed it. If you have tried to upgrade amavis to newer version which is now amavis-new it breaks amavis. at the time of apt-get install amavis, the install takes /etc/amavis/amavis.conf or /etc/amavis.conf and renames it to amavis.conf.disabled the install then fails asking you to read more about the changes. simply rename the amavis.conf.disabled to amavis.conf.WHATEVER and remove the amavis.conf.disabled file. then run the apt-get install amavis again, and it will complete the install fine. start amavis if needed, hope this helps you
I know this thread is old but just in case you get here by some search engine, i would like to point you to the solution: Here it is what solved the issue with ISPConfig3 and it is already working fine
