    Hi,

    I am a Linux newbie; and just installed Virtualmin on my VPS server Centos 5.8 32bit with Postfix and Dovecot POP3/IMAP pre-built applications.

    It works perfectly for web server and Web based mailer (squirrelmail); I can send/receive emails without issues.

    However, I cannot set up or logn into my email account from Thunderbird or Outlook. Here are errors in /var/log/maillog:
