    I am using now the ISPConfig3 and mapped to real IP (a.b.c.d) + a registered domain inuse.com, using the webmail interface, I can send email, but not able to receive from outside .... what shall I write inside my dns zone.
    The ISPConfig3 server will be hosting Web, Mail (IMAP,SMTP,POP).

    Please check if you have an MX record for your domain that points to your server. You can check as follows:
    Code:
    dig mx yourdomain.com

    Does the A record of mail.mydomain.com point to the correct server? Please check with
    Code:
    dig mail.mydomain.com
