I have followed the perfect server setup : http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-fedora-13-x86_64-ispconfig-3 about 3 times Latest round, all went beautifully, no errors, exactly as planned. Except for the email testing. I can login to squirrellmail and send/receive from there just fine, but keep getting the following error when atempting to login via windows mail: Code: Server Error: 0x800CCC90 Server Response: -ERR Cannot connect to POP server 184.106.212.176 (184.106.212.176:995), connect error 10060 Server: 'tigerstrikemedia.com' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC90 Protocol: POP3 Port: 110 Secure(SSL): No Here is the output of netstat -tap: Code: tcp 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:pop3s *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 localhost:10024 *:* LISTEN 16323/amavisd (mast tcp 0 0 localhost:10025 *:* LISTEN 18718/master tcp 0 0 *:54345 *:* LISTEN 1300/sshd tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 16181/mysqld tcp 0 0 *:pop3 *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:imap *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 16418/pure-ftpd (SE tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 18718/master tcp 0 0 localhost:52497 localhost:mysql ESTABLISHED 16332/amavisd (ch1- tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql localhost:52497 ESTABLISHED 16181/mysqld tcp 61 0 localhost:54134 localhost:10025 CLOSE_WAIT 16332/amavisd (ch1- tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql localhost:49163 ESTABLISHED 16181/mysqld tcp 0 0 Bennys-2:ssh CPE-124-185-128-142.l:51254 ESTABLISHED 868/sshd: casben79 tcp 0 0 localhost:49163 localhost:mysql ESTABLISHED 16331/amavisd (ch2- tcp 0 264 Bennys-2:54345 CPE-124-185-128-142.l:53414 ESTABLISHED 18152/sshd: casben7 tcp 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:pop3s *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:54345 *:* LISTEN 1300/sshd tcp 0 0 *:pop3 *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:imap *:* LISTEN 18599/dovecot tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN 16396/httpd tcp 0 0 *:tproxy *:* LISTEN 16396/httpd tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 16418/pure-ftpd (SE tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 18718/master tcp 0 0 *:30234 *:* LISTEN 16396/httpd tcp 0 0 *:https *:* LISTEN 16396/httpd and iptables -L Code: Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination fail2ban-SSH tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ssh ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere REJECT all -- anywhere loopback/8 reject-with icmp-port-unreachable ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:http ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:https ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:https ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:pop3 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:smtp ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:ftp ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:30234 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere state NEW tcp dpt:54345 ACCEPT icmp -- anywhere anywhere icmp echo-request REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-port-unreachable Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination REJECT all -- anywhere anywhere reject-with icmp-port-unreachable Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere Chain fail2ban-SSH (1 references) target prot opt source destination RETURN all -- anywhere anywhere Any other logs you guys need to help me troubleshoot this?
Code: mark@mark-desktop:~$ telnet tigerstrikemedia.com 110 Trying 184.106.212.176... Connected to tigerstrikemedia.com. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. seems to work just fine ..
I have been fiddling with ports and settings, I can now collect emails, but not send them from windows mail im going to try a few more things and get back to you
Sorry to be a noob, But I have followed through with this tut: http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL and am still getting this error: Code: Subject 'test' Server Error: 421 Server Response: 421 Cannot connect to SMTP server 184.106.212.176 (184.106.212.176:25), connect error 10060 Server: 'tigerstrikemedia.com' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC67 Protocol: SMTP Port: 25 Secure(SSL): No
Your ISP probably doesn't allow you to connect to other SMTP server then their own, it's very common .. open up /etc/postfix/master.cf and uncomment the "submission" line Code: submission inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_enforce_tls=yes -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject restart postfix and tell your mail client to connect with port 587, using SSL (STARTTLS)
ok, am now getting a different error message: Code: An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'test' Server Error: 554 Server Response: 554 5.5.1 Error: TLS already active Server: 'tigerstrikemedia.com' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC6F Protocol: SMTP Port: 587 Secure(SSL): Yes And also Auth failure (triple checked the password) Code: Unable to send or receive messages for the Tigerstrikemedia (admin) account. An incorrect password was entered. Server Error: 0x800CCC90 Server Response: -ERR Authentication failed. Server: 'tigerstrikemedia.com' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92 Protocol: POP3 Port: 110 Secure(SSL): No any idea?
about sending mail: don't use SSL in your mail client then eh, the error tells you is't already active. about receiving mail: you must've changed something else then just submission in master.cf because pop was working just fine you said .. retrace your steps and double/triple check them
can you pls let me know what the dovecot.conf auth default function was originally, being the tool I feel like at the moment, I deleted the original function instead of commenting it out
err, this is the 3rd time around through this one: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-fedora-13-x86_64-ispconfig-3
