I am trying to get mail to work, but, apparently, I've got some serious problems with Postfix. I installed it using the tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge but have probably messed it up on my own. Will ISPConfig be affected if I uninstall, then reinstall following the tutorial? This is the problem: I sent emails to all of the users, I cannot retrieve mail using a client, and Maildir is selected in management>server>settings>email. Any ideas?
