I set up a new server with unbuntu 15.10 and a new install of ISPconfig, using this guide https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial...l-pureftpd-bind-postfix-doveot-and-ispconfig/ I followed the guide making no alterations except for using my domain name. I can create email accounts and log into them via round cube but can neither send or receive mail. I used a gmail account to send test emails and they never arrived but neither did I get a failure. I ran the common issues script, let me know what further information you may need. Code: [INFO] ISPConfig is installed. ##### ISPCONFIG ##### ISPConfig version is 3.0.5.4p8 ##### VERSION CHECK ##### [INFO] php (cli) version is 5.6.11-1ubuntu3.1 ##### PORT CHECK ##### [WARN] Port 465 (SMTP server SSL) seems NOT to be listening ##### MAIL SERVER CHECK ##### [WARN] I found no "submission" entry in your postfix master.cf [INFO] this is not critical, but if you want to offer port 587 for smtp connections you have to enable this.

Did you setup your new server as MX-record for your testing domain? Did you set the hostname of the server like "machine.domain.tld" and not just "domain.tld" leading to virtal domain name duplicates since the hostname and probably one mail domain exist twice in the config then.
Yes mx and DNS records all already exist, this is just new hardware and the server is configured as servername.domain.tld
Did you made the changes for /etc/postfix/master.cf as mentioned in the tutorial? If your server is not sending mail, check your mailqueue with mailq - you`ll see the pending mails - and the reason.
I did indeed make the changes, here is the master.cf I sent an email from my gmail account and ran the mailq command and checked it over a few minutes and it only reported that the queue is empty Code: # # Postfix master process configuration file.

Thank you, that was indeed the issue. My server is now accepting mail. I am also able to send mail through an email client. However roundcube is not able to send. I compose a message and hit send and just nothing happens, any suggestions?
That's probably a issue in roundcube and not the email system. There was a bug in the ubuntu RoundCube package that was mentioned here in the forum a few weeks ago incl. a bugfix, maybe this affects you as well. Try to search for that.
