Problem with email delivery new install - ubuntu 7.10

Hello

I have followed the setup for the perfect setup. And all went quite smooth. Have been adding domains and email addresses. And was about to switch over my server. Then I tried to test email delivery. And as much as all seems to go without problems in the log. The mail doesnt get delivered (at least not in the right place.

Just FYI - right now i have an old linux server running with a cyrus setup - that I want to migrate to the ISPconfig install.
The websites are already all working - and creating email addresses seemed to work as well.

I'm running ISPconfig version: 2.2.18
I did turn on Maildir in the settings of ISPconfig - but i only did after creating the accounts.

I can't see where it's going wrong. Some of the mails i tried are delivered in /var/mail/xxx
But can't find all of them there - and there are no delivery errors.

Hope someone can help - since i am not sure where to look now.

Thanks
Bas
here are the lines from the mail.info log:

Extra info

Just as extra info

I test the mail delivery by using a telnet client to connect to port 25 and give a mail by hand

helo <dns name>
MAIL FROM: <[email protected]>
RCPT TO: <[email protected]>
DATA
skjflksjd
.

The mail is accepted and queued
can't find it after that anymore
(i would presume it should be processed locally and delivered)

Thanks

thanks - no succes yet

thanks for your quick response.

I have unquoted the line in main.cf (the mydestination)

checked the hosts file. Both localhost and the ipnr are linked to mail.q#####.com, localhost.q#####.com, localhost

and hostname returns mail.q#####.com,
hostname -f returns localhost


Still the log now complains that the host or domain is not found. Name service error for name=mail.q#####.com type=MX: host not found)

I should add that at this moment the machine is not connected to the internet - as that domain on the internet would still point to my old server. But i think that in this case the hosts file should be sufficient

thanks very much for the help already

thanks very much
that seemed to have resolved it

just a small question - right now i have in the hosts file the 127.0.0.1 - and the ip of my internal network linked to the ISPconfig host. When i put it online - i guess i should also put the external ipnumber of the site there.

Thanks again
Bas

 

Only if the IP address changes. You should use the one that you see in the output of

Code:

ifconfig

If the system stays behind a router, you can probably leave it as it is.

 

thanks

ok thanks very much

I wasnt sure cause i have a setup where the real ipnumber is taken by my router -which forwards the traffic to my server.
but it all seems to be working now

thanks again
Bas
