    i found a tip from google. and two lines after imapd.conf, and now it works . i can login . and also i can send out . but can't receive mail . and advices?

    Code:
    autocreatequota: -1
    createonpost: yes 
    but i don't know what they mean. and also i was wondering . autocreatequota =-1 looks means some disk quota is this setting will effect the ispconfig mailbox quota ?

    thanks

    Did you enable/disable Maildir in Management -> Server -> Settings -> Email? Try to change that setting.

    If you followed the perfect setup nstructions, your google tip is not nescessray.

    Are there any files in:

    /home/www/web6/user/web6_test/Maildir/new/
    /home/www/web6/user/web6_test/Maildir/cur/

    if not, please post the output of:

    ls -la /var/spool/mail/

    Do you have a co-domain test.com (host is empty!) in the ispconfig website www.test.com?

    drwxr-xr-x 4 web6_test web6 4096 Dec 8 01:33 ..

    there is no file directory in Maildir, maybe this is the problem.

    I think that Cyrus is the problem. Try to remove it and install another POP3 server such as Courier. Maybe dovecot will also do ( http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1432 ).

    When you have Maildir enabled and send a mail to yourself, what's the output of

    Code:
    ls -la /home/www/web6/user/web6_test/Maildir
    afterwards? At least the mails should arrive in there.

    Make sure [email protected] is in /etc/postfix/virtusertable, and jmugs981.org is in /etc/postfix/local-host-names.

    :mad:

    i reinstalled my ispconfig.
    and now dns works fine.
    but mail .....
    i create a client test , and a website test . create a mail user tt.
    [email protected] user web1_tt passwd tt .

    and now user tt can login from webmail or web client such as outlook .

    mail send out works fine. but can't receive mail . and i tried to send a mail to [email protected] from the other mail server .
    but i can't receive it . and the mail used to send the mail has no message , seems has sended the mail
    also i have tried to enable and disable in server settings that mail dir.
    i checked virtusertable and the local-host-names seems ok .tt is on the virtuesertable and jmugs981.org in local-host-named .

    what can i do?

    falko Super Moderator ISPConfig Developer

    Is 211.144.137.88 your public IP address? You don't have an MX record for jmugs981.org.

    If your server is in a local network behind a router: did yiu forward port 25 from your router to your server?
    Do you see anything in the mail log when you send a mail to [email protected]? I suggest that you run
    Code:
    tail -f /path/to/maillog
    and then send a mail to that email address and have a look what happens in your log.

    There's the error: I guess freelamp.jmugs981.org is your hostname. Create an A record for it that points to your server.

    You should use a FQDN like mail.example.com instead of an IP address as mail server. And, of course, your name server (the ISPConfig server) must be authoritative for your domain otherwise you can create as many records as you want, but it will have no effect...

    And if you enter it like this, the MX record is for email addresses like [email protected]. In most cases the host field for the MX records must be empty!
