i followed the LAMP set up for FC6 and everything installed fine [no errors or anything], but i did not install ISPconfig, and now whenever i try to send an email to my email server, it gets returned with the error message as "relaying denied", any help would be muchly appreciated
Did you configure email accounts as described here? http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2
Please post the exact error message here. What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf (please strip out the comments)?

did that and it still doesn't work, thunderbird keeps comming back saying "An error occured while sending the mail. The mail server responded: 5.7.1 <[email protected]>... Relyaing denied. Please verify that your email address is correct in your mail preferences and try again" and there is nothing in the mail log so it doesn't even seem it gets that far
it is, here is local-host-names Code: localhost www1.hitmenforhire.com hitenforhire.com localhost.hitmenforhire.com localhost.www1.hitmenforhire.com
well, after a hard drive crash, and then a reinstall on a fresh drive, email is working perfectly, thanks!
ok, after a few days of running i have noticed one thing with the emails, all the automated emails that get sent, do not actually get sent, they get stuck in the mail queue and eventually when they do get delivered they are appeneded to another email [that is titled 'Warning: could not send message for the past 4 hours'] and i believe the problem is that all the email is [by default] being sent to the root account, and i know with sendmail you can add a new alias to have all root email sent to a user account [which i have done and run the 'newalias' command] and yet all root email does not get forwarded. does this work the same in postfix? or would i have to add a line in the virtusertable file?
