Hi, First of all I would like to thank you for this great software. I have just migrated from using Kloxo and am having some problems in the initial setup. I am trying to use Microsoft Outlook to send and receive emails. However, Outlook is unable to connect to the outgoing server. I am using Debian with ISPConfig 3. I checked your manual also, but couldn't find a solution. http://http://http://allnetsols.com/Untitled-1.jpg Some of the Outputs that may provide relevant details are given below:- Require some assistance. Thanks in advance.
Are there any errors in your mail log (in the /var/log/ directory)? Does Outlook give you any error messages?
Thank you for the response. Once I test the Account in Outlook, it just reports that it cannot connect to SMTP server. Login to the incoming server(POP3) is fine. Here is the mail.log Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/smtpd[4743]: 00B9B40E360: client=localhost[127.0.0.1] Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/cleanup[4734]: 00B9B40E360: message-id=<[email protected]$ Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/qmgr[3861]: 00B9B40E360: from=<[email protected]>, size=12112, nrcpt$ Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/smtpd[4743]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/local[4744]: 00B9B40E360: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<$ Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/qmgr[3861]: 00B9B40E360: removed Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental amavis[4311]: (04311-05) Passed CLEAN, <[email protected]> -> <root@oriental$ Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/smtp[4738]: 988DA40E36B: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<root>, rel$ Sep 11 09:18:14 oriental postfix/qmgr[3861]: 988DA40E36B: removed My Incoming mail server is set to pop.mydomain.com My Outgoing mail server is set to smtp.mydomain.com (Where mydomain is the actual domain for which I am checking mail) Im my Outlook settings I have checked "My Outgoing SMTP server requires Authentication". I am using standard ports 110 and 25 for incoming and outgoing mails. I even tried to use Thunderbird client, and an alternate ISP to see if that was a problem, but it just didn't work. What am I doing wrong?
It seems my ISP has blocked port 25 for sending out emails. I could not establish a connection with SMTP on port 25 using telnet. I have changed ports as per the instructions given at:- http://www.faqforge.com/linux/how-to-enable-port-465-smtps-in-postfix-mailserver/ Additionally, I also id not have an A record for SMTP in the DNS zones. I have added that record. My netstat is as below. however, I believe the issue is SOLVED. Thanks again for extending the help
