Hi I've not been able to receive any emails to the email i've setup using ispconfig. I can send no problem but there seems to be a problem receiving. When I email the account i get the following error back 5.10 - Unknown address error 550 - relay not permitted. Seems i may have configured something incorrectly, can anyone help and i'm new to linux. Thanks
Sure, where abouts can i find the log? The error i get is actually This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: [email protected] Technical details of permanent failure: PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 13): 550 relay not permitted (i've changed the email addy here for privacy) My log is:
also this is the contents of my resolv.conf (which somewhere i read might be helpful to know?!?!) ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------- 192.168.1.1254 is the internal ip of the router.
Please check if the MX record of the domain that you're sending to is pointing to the right server: Code: dig mx yourdomain.com
when i did that the MX record for the domain points at i've changed my domain name from the real on to mydomain.co.uk here for privacy. think this looks odd as it has my external IP address.mydomain name? Have i messed up somewhere?
hi when i run dig i get ;; Query time: 46 msec ;; SERVER: 192.168.1.254#53(192.168.1.254) ;; WHEN: Thu Jan 10 00:06:14 2008 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 111 the server it resolved too is the internal IP address of the router here. I dont really know what i should be setting my MX and @ records to with the registrar so that is my first problem! What should it be? At the moment the @ record is set to the external ip and the mx record is mx10.mydomain.co.uk (where my domain is my domain name)
That's right. You must also create an A record for mx10.mydomain.co.uk (should point to your public IP address as well).
