    All things are working, but when i try to send mail it says the error:
    1.mail for mail.example.com loops back to myself. #when i try to send mail from my centos6
    2.when i try to acces mails via squirrelmail login page ,but when i login through [email protected] and password secret it says connection dropped by imap server The logs of the maillog file is given
    Code:
     Oct 30 20:24:34 localhost clamd[5285]: SelfCheck: Database status OK.
    Oct 30 20:27:46 localhost imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:192.168.137.130]
    Oct 30 20:27:46 localhost imapd: chdir example.com/sales/: No such file or directory
    Oct 30 20:27:46 localhost imapd: [email protected]: No such file or directory

    Please add mail.example.com to the mydestination line in /etc/postfix/main.cf and restart Postfix.
