Hello All, I've installed ISPConfig 2.2.5 no problem, but after struggling with the DNS not working, i decided to use an external DNS server. Now that I have that working, I am unable to login to the mail server from a client, e.g. Outlook Express, using either POP3 or IMAP, says "Password Rejected". I removed the username prefix as I am only using one domain, I tried testing using [email protected], with username postmaster and I can't login to the server. This is what the logs look like: mail.log- Sep 16 09:24:43 ispconfig courierpop3login: Connection, ip=[::ffff:192.168.123.1] Sep 16 09:24:48 ispconfig courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:192.168.123.1] Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem? Any help is appreciated.
Dumb question, but did you create that mail user for the domain? Check /etc/passwd for the mail account you're trying to login with- if it's not there, you haven't created the mail account for the domain... //Todd
Yes I've already created the mail users and they are in my /etc/passwd. Is there anything in any configuration file that may point to why I can't connect? E.g. I've noticed that there are two entried in my /etc/postfix/main.cf for the same key. mydestination = ispconfig.posted-jobs.com, localhost.posted-jobs.com, , localhost AND at the very bottom of the main.cf there is another mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names I didn't add that second one.
The second entry gets added by ispconfig- I'd comment out the first one. Have you tried this: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html#server_test Also- ditch Outlook Express. It's a sorry excuse for a mail client. Go grab yourself a copy of Thunderbird... http://www.mozilla.org/ //Todd
its not a matter of not being able to send emails, I have another smtp server to do that for me, I can't even login to any mail client (I know OE sux, just using it to test). Maybe I'll just do a re-install and see what's what then.
Try the username created by ISPConfig for that user. (i.e. web4_postmaster) Take a look at your /etc/passwd for the actual user name... //Todd
