    Okay i have been having all sorts of problems with postfix and getting the mx record to work.

    I initially created 2 domains with ISPconfig both semi worked i was able to navigate to the site and receive emails but never able to send emails.

    The 2 domains are linuxinsite.org and mutious.info.

    Intially i ran the test over at http://pingability.com/ and it was full of errors. I got most of the other errors straightened out besides for the mail server. WHen you run the test on mutious.info i get

    Now i just assumed this would prevent me from sending mail out. I know my ISP blocks port 25 outbound and i have everything for postfix changed to listen on port 587

    My netstat displays

    Any suggestions on where to start to get this resolved. Im sort of new at configuring but im starting to get the hang of everything.

    I followed the perfect setup for suse 10.1 and the DNS with godaddy.

    That's a bad idea. Either use ISPConfig or Webmin, but not both. You will mess up your system...

    Your name servers don't have DNS records:

    Code:
    dig ns linuxinsite.org

    The authoritative name servers for linuxinsite.org are ns113.linuxinsite.org and ns114.linuxinsite.org, but neither of them exists in DNS:
