I can't receive emails. Now I can send mails after adding 127.0.0.1 localhost in /ect/hosts but no mail will reach my from the world.... I feel so lonely I don't no why - any ideas? tom
Please search the mail log for errors. Does the MX record of your domain points correctly to your server domain?
Please add domain-a.de at the end of /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart Postfix: Code: /etc/init.d/postfix restart
i have the same problem i can sen email but cant receive any email my domain name is in mx the directory /var/spool/mail contains no mail. i got realy headhak please help me some one.
Please post an excerpt of your mail log. By the way, please make a new thraed if you have a support question because its likely that you do not have the same problem. Not receiving mails can be caused by 100+ different problems.
To your first error: Add the line: mail.server-domain.top at the end of the file /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart postfix. To your sasl error: Did you get an error when you restart the sasl auth daemon?
No errors when saslauthd is starting I found an bloddy config mistake: I've set up the mailbox_size_limit more than message_size_limit and now I'm receivng all the lost mail What I don't now: Were can I edit message_size_limit? tom
What's the output of Code: ps aux|grep saslauthd ? Which distribution do you use? You can set it in /etc/postfix/main.cf. If it isn't set there, Postfix takes the default values that you can see when you run Code: postconf -d
I've added message_size_limit = 1024 in /etc/postfix/main.cf restarted postfix and then postconf -d|less but whis no change.
This sets the message size limit to 1024 bytes... I guess you mean 10240000 (10MB)? Code: postconf -d always shows the default settings. If you want to see your current settings, run Code: postconf -n Did you do the Postfix/saslauthd configuration as described here? http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge_p4
