Hi, Centos 6.4 , followed the perfect server howto (http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-6.4-x86_64-nginx-dovecot-ispconfig-3 ) No BIND was installed , as server is used for WEB only. Probelm with sending mails . I can see emails in posfix queue, but the log gives : Code: Oct 17 18:09:39 localhost postfix/smtpd[21640]: connect from unknown[127.0.0.1] Oct 17 18:09:39 localhost postfix/smtpd[21642]: connect from

The issue is not related to bind, the mail system is incomplete. Did you install all mail software packages as described in the perfects etup guide before you installed ispconfig?
Actually i should had done that. However i skipped the mailman and squirrel mail . Is there any way I can keep this up and running ? (Basically there's no mails hosted there, thus i only need outgoing mail (sent form php) so be working . Can you let me knwo which packages might be missing ?
There is at least a dovecot file missing. You can skip mailman, but all other packages except of the mailman package should be installed. Thend download the ispconfig tar.gz again, unpack it and run the update.php script. choose yes when the updater asks if the services should be reconfigured.
If this will be doen on a production machine will there any chance it will rewrite PHP.ini/ php-fpm configs/ Nginx configs/ ? I mean can it actually break the web functionality , as we're having lots of subdomains, some of those are manually configured. Is it possible update would break things ?
The update does not change the domain configuration of individual sites, it will change only global config files. Btw. If thats a production server, then you should install updates regularily anyway to keep your system safe.
Tested on test amchine - got Code: The value of variable $myhostname is "TestOS", but should have been a fully qualified domain name; perhaps uname(3) did not provide such. You must explicitly assign a FQDN of this host to variable $myhostname in amavisd.conf, or fix what uname(3) provides as a host's network name! Starting amavisd: [FAILED] have changed $myhostname in amavisd.conf and service started but emails didnt work, log said Code: dovecot: auth: Error: Can't open configuration file /etc/dovecot-sql.conf: No such file or directory the file actually in /etc/dovecot , so just copied it to the /etc folder restarted services - worked ! One more thing to resolve : Code: Oct 18 15:10:57 localhost postfix/smtp[11316]: C25204DC0AFA: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<root@localhost>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=211132, delays=211127/0/0.01/4.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 from MTA(smtp:[127 .0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 2EA3B4DC0B17) Oct 18 15:10:57 localhost postfix/qmgr[11315]: warning: qmgr_active_done_3_generic: remove C25204DC0AFA from active: No such file or directory Oct 18 15:11:00 localhost postfix/smtp[11339]: 2EA3B4DC0B17: to=<[email protected]>, relay=ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM[2a00:1450:4013:c01::1b]:25, delay=3.2, delays=0.01/0.01/0.15/3, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (host ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM[2a00:1450:40 13:c01::1b] said: 550-5.1.1 The email account that you tried to reach does not exist.
