Hi all, VM - ubuntu1010 server 64bit host - ubuntu1104 desktop 64bit Orcle VirtualBox On router Port 25 pointing VM Ip(local) (ISP won't block port 25. I'm subscribing fixed IP) I was following; The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 10.10 [ISPConfig 3] http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.10-maverick-meerkat-ispconfig-3-p4 to build this server running on a VM of Oracle VirtualBox. Then I followed; Postfix Complete VirtualMail System Howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixCompleteVirtualMailSystemHowto further configuring postfix. After encountering problem I followed the advice on #2 Setup mailaccount http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2 trying to solve it without result. $ telnet localhost smtp Trying ::1...

I don't know why. B.R. satimis
You are mixing incompatible tutorials. The first two tutorials are for virtual users, while the forum link talks about setting up system user email accounts.
Hi falko, OK, I would start again using Ubuntu 10.04(LTS) base server. I'm prepared testing virtual users on VM, i.e. several domains running on the same IP (fixed). Would following howto be suitable for me? Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (Ubuntu 11.10) http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-u...x-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-ubuntu-11.10 (Submitted by falko on Mon, 2011-11-07 01:29) ? About 3 years ago I did the same test making use of "Perdiction". It worked for me. Unfortunately I forget how to make it. I'm now digging hard on my database. TIA B.R. satimis
Hi falko, I followed your Howto building the server. There was no problem up to; 9 Install amavisd-new, SpamAssassin, And ClamAV http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-u...ourier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-ubuntu-11.10-p3 server name = server01.domain.com # hostname Code: server01.domain.com # hostname -f Code: server01.domain.com On running; # netstat -tap Code: Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 1195/sshd tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 6629/master tcp 0 0 localhost:10024 *:* LISTEN 4668/amavisd (maste tcp 0 0 localhost:10025 *:* LISTEN 6629/master tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql *:* LISTEN 842/mysqld tcp 0 0 192.168.0.218:ssh 192.168.0.200:41762 ESTABLISHED 1228/sshd: domain tcp6 0 0 [::]:ssh [::]:* LISTEN 1195/sshd tcp6 0 0 [::]:imaps [::]:* LISTEN 827/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:pop3s [::]:* LISTEN 870/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:pop3 [::]:* LISTEN 845/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:imap2 [::]:* LISTEN 805/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 [::]:www [::]:* LISTEN 1054/apache2 On above output, the line Code: tcp 0 0 192.168.0.218:ssh 192.168.0.200:41762 ESTABLISHED 1228/sshd: domain differs from your howto; Code: tcp 0 300 server1.example.com:ssh 192.168.0.199:4041 ESTABLISHED 693/0 server name missing and domain (without .com) appearing at the end of the line. Is it a problem. If "YES" where shall I check and how to correct it? TIA B.R. satimis
$ cat /etc/hosts Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 ser01.mydomain.com ser01 192.168.0.218 mail.mydomain.com # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters This server can send mail but unable to receive mail. I'll start another posting. Thanks satimis
