ISPConfig 3.0.1.3 E-mail

hi falco and till.
I tried to send an email using squirrelMail {[email protected]} to [email protected] and [email protected]

[email protected] got the email
[email protected] did not get it

in my server we are using postfix.

how can I config the email to resive email?

thanks for your work and you time

 

Type in the mail server: tail -f /var/log/mail.log and than try to send a email to gmail adress. When you do that copy the output that shows up in terminal windows from the command that you typed in and paste it here.

Something more, I can't get e-mail in come, just the ones from the server (notifications)

Thank you.

 

In most cases gmail is rejecting mail is because bad email configuration or dns configuration.

Post the output of following commands:

hostname
hostname -f
cat /etc/mailname

You can try to check if your IP or MX is open relay:

Thank for your time and help.

server:~# hostname
server
server:~# hostname -f
server.example.com
server:~# cat /etc/mailname
server.example.com

This is it.

In the hosting control panel:

Email

server Domain

server.example.com example.com



But in the DNS Zone I don"t have nothing declared; I mean, no records for this domain.

Where is my mistake? thank you, I appreciate you help.

 

First check out this URL: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-debian-lenny-ispconfig3-p3

Setup your hostnames like in the guide in the url. You need to use FQDN (Fully qualified domain name) for email and you need to setup MX record in DNS that points to your IP of ISPConfig server.

ok. so I have a difference in the eth0 in my server is dhcp

and in the records of the DNS is hostname the domain name??

MX record

hostname:
example.com

emailserver hostname:
server.example.com

is that right??

thank yuo very mush

 

Are we talking about FQDN (Fully qualified domain name) here or do you use local test domain ?

However I made the mx record in my server

 

The MX records are pointing to 1and1.com servers instead of your own server. You must create the MX record on the authoritative nameservers for your domain. You can find them out by running

Code:

dig ns yourdomain.com

Can I change all those records from 1and1.com to my server?
Is this something that will happing all the time whent I register a new domain?

Thank you

 

You must create the MX record on ns57.1and1.com and ns58.1and1.com.

If you want to run your own nameservers, take a look here (it's for ISPConfig 2, but it should give you the idea): http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy

 

How To Run Your Own Name Servers With ISPConfig And GoDaddy - Page 2

[Before we create DNS records for ifwolfpack.com on our ISPConfig servers, go to Management -> Server -> Settings -> DNS and enter ns1.erikturk.com as Default Ns1 and ns2.erikturk.com as Default Ns2. You should also specify a valid Admin Email:]

How can we translate this in ISPConfig3??? It could be System >> server >> add new server ????

My hostname is "server" so server.example.com
do I have to change the setting to ns1.example.com or just add a new server?
thanks.
