Email not working

Hi,
Any thoughts/comments would be welcomed.

I have a VPS (running ubuntu 14.04 + ISPConfig) and trying to set up to work with a domain that was purchased at 1and1.com. All seems to be working fine - except for emailing. I cant send and receive emails.

/var/log/mail.log is litterally full with:

Code:

 ************.com postfix/error[7178]: A0C6C2341B78: to=<getmail@************.com>, orig_to=<getmail>, relay=none, delay=38127, delays=38127/0.12/0/0.04, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024: Connection refused) 

Everytime I try to send a letter the following is added to the log:

Code:

Dec  5 08:10:28 ************ postfix/error[6741]: A5EAF2341BEB: to=<***DESTINATION-ADDRESS***>, relay=none, delay=4779, delays=4779/0.09/0/0.05, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024: Connection refused)

I'm not sure why receiving is not working as emails seem to be going straight down to devnull or i dont know where - no errors appear in the logs, no errors bounce back to the sender.

I think DNS configuration might be causing the issue.

Any ideas?

Thank you,
Jozsef

 

Thank you for your suggestion. I stopped amavis because somebody wrote that it might casue issues like this. The problem was there with amavis running as well

 

Thanks till,

Turns out, amavis not runnig was really a bad idea. And it might have had not run - it failed to start as devnull had a permission of 600. After changing it to 666 amavis started. Aaaand problem solved, thanks
