I guess that the .procmailrc file in the user's homedir wasn't ok before you deleted and restored it.
Falko, I'm still having problems. So I decided to start over with a new server setup. Let me post the results again after testing.
Falko. Here is my situation. So I reinstalled everything onto another server. Host: Server1 Domain: syncrohost.com (as ns1.syncrohost.com in ispconfig) Using Suse Perfect setup. rdtech-online.com is a website on the server Everthing is working except for the mail again. I cantd seem to figur it out. The first mail that was sent out came back with this error. Reporting-MTA: dns; server1.syncrohost X-Postfix-Queue-ID: BEA785978641 X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; [email protected] Arrival-Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2008 22:48:10 -0700 (PDT) Final-Recipient: rfc822; [email protected]rohost Original-Recipient: rfc822;[email protected] Action: failed Status: 5.4.4 Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Host or domain name not found.

Here is a picture that of the ISPconfig with the a record, cname and mx record for the domain rdtech-online.com in the DNS section Should I also create it for syncrohost.com? syncromix.com is another domain.
Does it say server1.syncrohost or server1.syncrohost.com? Did you create an A record for server1.syncrohost.com? Are server1.syncrohost or server1.syncrohost.com listed somewhere in your main.cf?
Falko, main.cf has it as server1.syncrohost Should it be server1.syncrohost.com? Well I just want to make sure its put in the right way. It is working with server1.syncrohost I had to add it to the Local-host-name file at the very botton. For the A record, I'm using syncrohost as a nameserver. Do I just create a master DNS for syncrohost as well on ispconfig even then its being used as a nameserver. I was afraid that might not work as there is no glue record(thats what I was told) Mail seems to be working now on the new server setup. I am now having problems with hotmail not receiving. I have contacted them to add me to the safe Sender ID list. I hope that does the trick. Now I need to follow your setup on backing up the server. Thanks for the help.
I'd use server1.syncrohost.com in main.cf and then create an A record for it. What are the authoritative nameservers for syncrohost.com? You can find out by running Code: dig ns syncrohost.com
Okay for my understanding is to change main.cf to server1.syncrohost.com Also to create a DNS for syncrohost.com and add an A record for that domain. (or should I create it for server1.syncrohost.com) <--Confusing to me. server1:~ # dig ns syncrohost.com ; <<>> DiG 9.4.1-P1 <<>> ns syncrohost.com ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 15271 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;syncrohost.com.

Ok, these are the nameservers for your domain (I guess these are the ones from your registrar - GoDaddy maybe?). Go to your registrar's web interface and create an A record for server1.syncrohost.com.
Falko, You are right. They are godaddys nameserver. I registered with them. Okay so I created the A record in godaddy for syncrohost.
Okay now if i changed the nameserver in godaddy (for syncrohost) to my nameserver(which is ns1.syncrohost.com ns2.syncrohost.com), I heard that there is or will be a conflict regarding glue record. How do I go about fixing that. I want to have a site called syncrohost.com running from ns1.syncrohost.com. but ns1.syncrohost.com is registered in godaddy under the domain syncrohost.com
Okay now I ran into another problem. RELAY ACCESS DENIED Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: RE: test Sent: 6/21/2008 6:36 PM The following recipient(s) cannot be reached: 'paul' on 6/21/2008 6:36 PM 554 5.7.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied webmail works. outlook works great within the network and when I'm outside of the network using outlook, then it doesn't work. I've searched in regards to this problem. Something to do with smtp auth. I've enabled "Outmail Server requires Authentication" and it still doesnt work. It can connect to the pop3 but not smtp. I've searched the forum and read alot but no one had a clear answer. Most of the answer was Server Authentication but I've enabled that already. Still no luck. What might be causing the problem. Maybe a setting somewhere?

Falko, Heres an update. I have outlook working with my server now. The main problem is this. Outlook works great with sending and receiving and relying internally. Now externally, I've tried it at work (t1 line) and it works (I checked outgoing server needs auth for it to work). Now back at home when I connect to my neighbors internet, I cant seem to reply to mails that I get. It gives me an error. Also when I go into the outlook, I can't connect to the server. Is there a way to disable the authentication so that I don't have to use the outlook feature (this outgoing server requires auth)
You should ask GoDaddy how you can create a glue record. I don't know the GoDaddy web interface. What error exactly? I think this could be related to your DNS issues, so you should try to solve these first.
The error I get is that the email client can't log onto the server (SMTP error) When I hit test connection in the outlook. (mind you that it tested okay when I'm at home(local) or at work(t1)) Thats odd. I get an error when I try to reply to an email. Email returns this message.

My neighbor is running dchp. I'm running static and at work its static. Maybe it has something to do with my nieghbors dhcp ISP. Can that be the cause?
Thanks for the reply on that. Expanding on the procmail file. 1. Is there anything that you can think of that would make it corrupt over time on its own or being affected by the usage of other files? We had a great running server for a long time and it just messed up all on its own. No one has access to our production servers but me and i keep them under lock and key. The only thing i do is wget ispconfig's updates when a new update comes out for the stable line. 2. Also now that i have that issue fixed. on the same accounts im getting a relay denied error whenever i try to send a email with multiple reciepients. 3. And is there any reason for me to keep the account names in /var/spool/mail at all? And thank you very much for explaining that deleting and restoring the email account name in ISPconfig regenerates the procmail file. I wish there was a whole book written on the subsystem actions like this, tips and tricks, i would buy it for sure.
Did you enable "Server requires authentication" in your email client? Might be an issue with your neighbour's firewall or with the nameservers your neighbour is using.
Server Authentication is enabled for me to be able to log in. It seems to be working but it doesnt work at my neighbors place. I wanted to see if I can disable authentication and how. That way I don't have to set the outgoing mail to authenticate.
Falko, Can you point me in the right direction to disable authentication on the server. That way i dont have to enable "Outgoing server requires Authen" thanks Paul
