I have googled a lot but not found any answer. Thx in advanced. Amin
hey dude, I am not too good at it but i think your problem is at mydestination variable in main.cf your relay access is denied because i guess at mydestination in main.cf you dont have mail.mydomain.com you have only localhost that's why u connect with localhost. Add after localhost, mail.mydomain.com and u should be good. Cheers
hi mirostz, Thx for your reply. I have solved the relay problem by this way a hour earlier. Now my problem is When I want to mail from local PC by ruby using my smtp server( remote) it create error. I am using user Authentication(login).here is setting Code: ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = { :address => "mail.mydomain.com", :port => 25, :domain => "mydomain.com", :user_name => "test", :password => "xxxxxx", :authentication => :login } But If it send mail from the server computer then it ok. Is there any config problem? Please help me.Thx in advance.
hey dude, Well i dont use ruby but try squirrelmail it is easy to install and it is with web interface very good mail program. you have already dovecot and postfix running so just install sqruirrelmail and have fun
