Hi, I just installed Ubuntu Server 9.04 with ISPConfig using Falkos how to: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-9.04-ispconfig-3 My websites are up and running and everything is working fine except the mail. I have installed Squirrelmail as advised in the "how to" and created an email account, I can log in to that account and send mail, but the mail won't reach the recepient. I also don't recieve mail sent to this account. Please help me out guyz! If you need any logs or info just reply and I will post it. Thanks in advance.
Some logs would be good. Also, is your firewall configured to pass traffic on port 25/tcp to and from your server?
