    Hi

    I installed a "perfect" openSUSE 11.0 server according to the manual at http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-opensuse11 and installed ISPConfig. Everything works fine except receiving emails. I can send emails, but when receiving mails I get the following error response:

    Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=server1.example.com type=AAAA: Host not found

    The error log shows:
    openSUSE-110-64-LAMP postfix/smtp[3721]: A0EEE9284EC: to=<[email protected]>, [email protected], relay=none, delay=0.62, delays=0.58/0.01/0.02/0, dsn=5.4.4, status=bounced (Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=server1.example.com type=AAAA: Host not found)

    I searched the forum and found similar problems, but none could solve mine. Any idea what the problem could be?

    Thanks a lot

    Either create a DNS record for server1.example.com (or place it in /etc/hosts), or run
    Code:
    postconf -e 'inet_protocols = ipv4 '
    /etc/init.d/postfix restart
