    You have a duplicate line, remove the first 176. IP line from /etc/hosts

    When the mail.log is empty, then this means that there are no errors, so that's fine. Now test mail system again and check which messages you get in the mail.lg file.

    I tried to reset the password in WordPress site, and the mail did not come.
    and the mail.log is empty

    Restart postfix, you should at least find info about the postfix restart there.

    In your first post, you said that you are using ISPConfig. The postfix config files are not from an ISPConfig system.

    And regarding your mail.log, according to the error message you missed setting up DNS records for your hostname. Other mail systems will not accept emails from your server when its hostname is unresolvable in DNS.

    Taras Tupko New Member

    ok, now I have some confused. I have the ISPConfig and there is some sites there, and I want to reset my pass in the site ( it have sent the email ) what the servise have to sent the email ispconfig or email server on ubuntu?

    till Super Moderator Staff Member ISPConfig Developer

    The mail config is not the one from an ISPConfig system. You might have ISPConfig installed but have chosen to leave out mail service and to not configure it.

    In Regard to your problem, I posted what you have to do to get the emails delivered, please reread post #30.

    Taras Tupko New Member

    so, I confuse totaly. I just want that the reset pass start worked. And I dont know how to do it. I tried to configure the with your tutorial
    ISPConfig and e-mail but it didn`t work. Than I tried to configure postfix the same situation. May be I the problem is in my dns ?
    I didnt configure the dns in ispconfig ( I bought my domain in other service). My main domain with ispconfig panel is ispconfig.vikisoft.kiev.ua. My dns post is A with ispconfig.vikisoft.kiev.ua and my IP 176.113.209.170. MY mx for ispconfig.vikisoft.kiev.ua is mail.ispconfig.vikisoft.kiev.ua My hosts is 176.113.209.170 ispconfig.vikisoft.kiev.ua mail and hostname is mail.
    My port 25 is opened.
    I realy dont know why it does not work

    and my log, when I tried to reset pass is
    Code:

    As @till mentioned, your postfix config did not come from ISPConfig, but to confirm, you did install ISPConfig and you intend to run an ISPConfig mail server? If that's the case, I would either 1) if possible, just reinstall the system again, using the autoinstaller so nothing is left out, or 2) run through the Perfect Server guide for your OS/web server and ensure all software is installed that you need, then run "ispconfig_update.sh --force" and let the installer reconfigure services (and if it says it finds postfix but mail service is not enabled, answer yes to enable mail service).

    If you are instead trying to just setup your own mail system and manually configure it... well, it can be done and can be fun if you like learning, but operating a mail system well is not a simple task, it requires ongoing work throughout the entire life of the mail system, so be sure that is what you want to sign up for. If so, post your main.cf and master.cf as of now.

    It does not work since you are not using ISPConfig.

    thanks for idea, I have chosen the second way, and checked the perfect server, updated the ispconfig and the log I think is correct

    Code:
    Jul 11 08:49:27 ispconfig postfix/pickup[2466]: 20095542979: uid=5008 from=<[email protected]>
    Jul 11 08:49:27 ispconfig postfix/cleanup[5144]: 20095542979: message-id=<[email protected]>
    Jul 11 08:49:27 ispconfig postfix/qmgr[2467]: 20095542979: from=<[email protected]>, size=1238, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
    
    but the email have not come, what ports must be opened? or maybe I have to configure mx or spf?

    Now that you are using ISPConfig, you can use the e-mail tutorial which is linked to in my signature. It has troubleshooting instructions. Read also the comments.
    Those three lines of log you pasted may not be the complete log for that e-mail? Surely something happens to the mail and the log should show it.
