    Retype new UNIX password: 
    passwd: password updated successfully
    
    $ telnet localhost 25
    Code:
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.localdomain.

    Solved

    Hi folks,


    Solved the problem as follos;


    Problem solved as follows;

    Edit /etc/postfix/main.cf
    Changing "permit_eth0" to "permit_mynetworks"

    $ sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart
    Code:
     * Stopping Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix                   [ OK ] 
     * Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix                         [ OK ] 
    
    That is all.
