I think I am finally almost at the finish line of setting things up. Just one problem left I cant send any mails out. I am not on a isp who blocks port 25. The server is in a data center I red in a topic that i must forward port 478. I checked the firewall in ispc3 but there aren't any entry's do I have to make some? In the same topic its say to use the netstap -tap command so I did but to me its ?? Code: server1:~# netstat -tap Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:53060 *:* LISTEN 23952/rpc.statd tcp 0 0 localhost.localdoma:708 *:* LISTEN 3500/famd tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:10024 *:* LISTEN 4472/amavisd (ch12- tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:10025 *:* LISTEN 19572/master tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 19443/mysqld tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:spamd *:* LISTEN 2945/spamd.pid tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN 2543/portmap tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 1255/pure-ftpd (SER tcp 0 0 server1.dcs-onli:domain *:* LISTEN 21023/mydns tcp 0 0 localhost.locald:domain *:* LISTEN 21023/mydns tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 2760/sshd tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 19572/master tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:42343 localhost.localdo:mysql ESTABLISHED 4472/amavisd (ch12- tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:37478 localhost.localdo:mysql ESTABLISHED 15340/amavisd (ch14 tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:mysql localhost.localdo:37478 ESTABLISHED 19443/mysqld tcp 0 248 server1.dcs-online.:ssh a80-101-35-64.ads:49716 ESTABLISHED 30671/0 tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:mysql localhost.localdo:42343 ESTABLISHED 19443/mysqld tcp6 0 0 [::]:imaps [::]:* LISTEN 20939/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:pop3s [::]:* LISTEN 20967/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:pop3 [::]:* LISTEN 20950/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:imap2 [::]:* LISTEN 20922/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:http-alt [::]:* LISTEN 10666/apache2 tcp6 0 0 [::]:www [::]:* LISTEN 10666/apache2 tcp6 0 0 [::]:tproxy [::]:* LISTEN 10666/apache2 tcp6 0 0 [::]:ftp [::]:* LISTEN 1255/pure-ftpd (SER tcp6 0 0 localhost:domain [::]:* LISTEN 21023/mydns tcp6 0 0 [::]:ssh [::]:* LISTEN 2760/sshd tcp6 0 0 [::]:https [::]:* LISTEN 10666/apache2 tcp6 0 0 server1.dcs-on:http-alt a80-xxx-xx-64.ads:49713 TIME_WAIT - tcp6 0 0 server1.dcs-on:http-alt a80-xxx-xx-64.ads:49715 TIME_WAIT - Are the last causing the problem? I can sent email If I use the smtp server from my own isp in outlook, I hope that it's a small thing this time. TIA
Your server is in a DC, but is the clients PC who is trying to send email's maybe on a network that is blocking port 25?
Of course I was thinking the wrong way. But My port isn't blocked (xs4all) I had my server first here at home and that worked fine. I found a solution but NOT the problem. If I use mail.dcs-online.nl instead of smtp.dcs-online.nl all is working fine. Did I do something wrong with the cname records?
Did you create an MX record for your domain? Please note that you must use an A record for an MX record; CNAME records are not allowed.
Yes I did. (in case site is ofline the code instead of above image) Code: MX dcs-online.nl. mail.dcs-online.nl. 10 And sad but true this is not my last problem, again my site is down?? and my mail server is working more not that it is working, boyh pop3 and smtp. So I am totally lost....
According to http://www.intodns.com/dcs-online.nl , one of your nameservers isn't responding, and there's a problem with different serial numbers on your nameservers.
