    Hey Guys,
    I have followed the Perfect Server for Fedora 8 HowTo but I am stuck. I believe I am having a problem with the postfix setup.

    when I run dns report I get "could not conenct to any of your mailservers!"

    my hostname: is www1.i0i.info
    domain: i0i.info

    I have an A address mail.i0i.info

    here is my postfix conf file:
    http://rafb.net/p/HTX3vs87.html

    I don't know what is supposed to go where bevause nothing seems to be working as I cant receive mail

    please help...
