Hello, I apologize if this question has been addressed elsewhere within the forum. If it is, I can't find it. I've been running Fedora Core 5 with ISPConfig for about a year and a half without any problems until now. I installed Fedora and ISPConfig a year and a half ago using the Perfect Setup tutorial on this site. I've recently installed a PHP script on one of my domains - it works fine, with the exception being that it won't send mail from the HTTPd server. I've tried everything I know how to do (which is why I'm here writing this) and I can't get it to work. Originally, I was able to send mail using Apache via my first domain, but now this won't work either. I've always kept Sendmail disabled and used SMTP to handle mail for PHP and CGI scripts. I always used "server1.hostname.com" (hostname=my domain - witheld for privacy reasons) as my sendmail "path" with my original domain, and it always worked until now. Yeah, I've tried setting the sendmail path to /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix with no luck... Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong, or at least give me a point in the right direction? I can receive mail within my server (i.e. when a new user signs up, I'll receive an e-mail letting me know, but the user won't receive an e-mail giving them their login information, etc), but users can't receive automatically generated e-mail from the server. By the way, I can send and receive e-mail using SMTP, POP3, and IMAP just fine. No matter what I try, I just can't get a CGI or PHP script to send out any mail. I've gone through Postfix's main.cf file with a fine tooth comb, and I can't see anything wrong with it. My mail logs indicated that the messages are being sent, but falling into a queue. I flushed out the mail queue using the sudo postsuper -d ALL command. There were only eleven messages in there. As I said, if I'm sending e-mail via Apache to an address on my server, I'm okay. If I send an e-mail via Apache to an outside address (i.e. hotmail or yahoo), it won't show up. The only thing I can think of that has changed in recent months is that I changed my static IP address since I installed Fedora. Believe me, it wasn't my choice. I bought a block of five additional IP's, and my provider decided to keep them all in order - so they deleted my original IP against my wishes (after telling me that my original IP wouldn't change). I KNOW I'm missing something really simple here. I've been wracking my brain and losing sleep over this for days... Any help you could give me with this would be greatly appreciated...
Run Code: tail -f /var/log/maillog and then let Apache send an email. What do you see in the tail output?
Hi Falko, Thanks for replying. I'm Mike, long time listener, first time caller...

Please run Code: postmap /etc/postfix/virtusertable and restart Postfix. Do you get these problems with MSN addresses only, or with all addresses? Please check if your server is blacklisted: http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx
Thank you... Thank you, Falko. Your knowledge is only exceeded by your generousity. It worked. I guess I should've seen it sooner, but when you work ten hours a day, six days a week, sometimes the fun stuff (like playing with servers) gets shuffled back. Again, thank you... ~Mike
