    The following php function works fine in another RedHat 9 server using sendmain without ISPConfig.

    <?
    (mail ("[email protected]", "PHP mail Testing....", "How are you?"));
    ?>

    "test2.com" is another domain hosted in RedHat 9 server.

    but the above php function doesn' t work in Fedora 3 using postfix with ISPConfig installed in domain "test.com".
    There is no problem receiving or sending emails with webmail using "[email protected]" (web07_sales01) account.

    I have the following lines in main.cf:

    mydomain = test.com
    myorgin = $mydomain
    inet_interfaces = all
    # local_recipient_maps =
    #local_recipient_maps =
    mynetworks_style = subnet
    #relayhost = $mydomain
    #relay_recipient_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/relay_recipients
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain,
    mail.$mydomain, www.$mydomain, ftp.$mydomain
    mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names
    virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable
    virtual_mailbox_domains = hash:/etc/postfix/vmaildomains
    relay_domains = $#mydestination
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,check_ relay_domains
    home_mailbox = Mailbox
    virtual_mailbox_base = /var/spool/virtual
    virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vmailbox
    virtual_mailbox_domains = hash:/etc/postfix/vmaildomains
    virtual_uid_maps = static:200
    virtual_gid_maps = static:200
    virtual_mailbox_lock = dotlock
    virtual_minimum_uid = 200

    But when I run

    telnet localhost 25
    and then issue
    ehlo localhost

    I don't see a line starting with 250-AUTH.


    Any suggestion?

    Please check your maillog for errors. Can you send emails to other domains outside this server with the php mail function?

    No. I can't send emails to other domains outside this server (e.g. [email protected]) with the php mail function. When I run the function in the browser,nothing happens at all.

    But,when I use webmail to send email with [email protected] to [email protected],it can send out the mail and receive reply from [email protected].

    Here is the telnet message:

    [root@server1~]# telnet localhost 25
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1)
    Escape character is '^]'.
    220 server1.test.com ESMTP Postfix
    ehlo localhost
    250-server1.test.com
    250-PIPELINING
    250-VRFY
    250-ETRN
    250-8BITMIME

    Here is the /var/log/maillog message:

    Seems to be a problem with ms2a.hinet.net. I also get "Connection refused":

    Maybe you should contact them and ask why this happens...

    I don't think it as a problem of ms2a.hinet.net,because I can send and receive emails for [email protected] and I can also send and receive emails to [email protected] using [email protected] via ISPConfig's Webmail.

    If I change the php mail function to another email address outside of ISPConfig Server,the result is still the same.

    <?
    (mail ("[email protected]", "PHP mail Testing....", "How are you?"));
    ?>

    Nothing was added to maillog and there is no action at all,nor did I receive any error message on the screen.

    Do I need to modify main.cf to other value as below?

    mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
    or
    mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/24


    mynetworks_style = subnet
    or
    mynetworks_style = host

    I really think you should contact the maintainer/administrator/ISP of ms2a.hinet.net. I guess they're having some kind of policy the restricts access to that mail server...

    The problem is smtp authentication. Now I can use php mail funtion without fail. Thanks for your help.
