    I have a VPS and it's running ISPConfig 3.1. I used this guide to install the server:
    https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial...l-pureftpd-bind-postfix-doveot-and-ispconfig/

    For some reason i cannot receive e-mails but i can send them. What i have done:

    1. The main server hostname when looking in /etc/hostname = noc
    2. The mail servername when looking in /etc/mailname = noc.telforce.nl
    3. Looking in /etc/postfix/main.cf it says = myhostname = noc.telforce.nl
    4. In the web manager i have created an email domain called noc.telforce.nl
    5. Under email mailbox i have created a box called = [email protected]
    6. In the DNS panel of my provider i have created these records:
      mail.noc.telforce.nl. A 136.144.181.97
      noc.telforce.nl. TXT "v=spf1 a mx ip4:136.144.181.97 ~all"
      noc.telforce.nl. MX mail.noc.telforce.nl. 0
      noc.telforce.nl. MX mail.noc.telforce.nl. 10
      noc.telforce.nl. A 136.144.181.97
    When i use roundcube to login with the account [email protected] i can send an email to my gmail account and receive it fine but when i reply i don't receive the email and the sender account does NOT get a bounce. There are also no errors in the mail.log and also the account [email protected] can't send an email to itself when using roundcube webmail, it's is sent but never received.

    What i can i do to troubleshoot?

    Is the mailbox with two l in tellforce?
    When you send mail, what does
    Code:
    tail -f /var/log/mail.log | grep postfix
    show?
    What about
    Code:
    hostname
    hostname -f
    Also, the reverse name service does not return mail.noc.telforce.nl for your mailserver FQDN:
