i need help please i dont know why my server dont send email for my inbox i have centos 5.7 32 bit and the latest IspConfig the mail log is: Please advice
Seems as if dovecot has not created the auth socket. Please restart dovecot and then postfix and then try again.
I just read your log again and it seems as if you use courier and not dovecot. Please post the output of: netstat -tap | grep imap
service dovecot start Starting Dovecot Imap: Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot.conf line 716: Unknown protocol name (section changed in /etc/dovecot.conf at line 710) Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot.conf [FAILED] i think i will start here many thanks
Please post the output of: netstat -tap | grep imap according to your log, you seem to use courier. If you start to configure dovecot now, then you will break your setup as dovecot and courier use a different maildir layout. You might also check in ispconfig > system > server config on the mail tab if dovecot or courier is selected there as mailserver.
in ispconfig the server is showing courier as the mail configure netstat -tap | grep imap tcp 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN 3713/couriertcpd tcp 0 0 *:imap *:* LISTEN 3706/couriertcpd
Ok, so you use courier. The problem is that you have also dovecot installed which caused a problem during update as the ispconfig installer found the dovecot install and configured the postfix authentication for dovecot and not courier. To fix that, edit the /etc/postfix/main.cf file and change the virtual_transport line to: virtual_transport = maildrop and comment out the lines: dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1 smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth by adding a # in front of the lines. then restart postfix.

any of this code may help i added the line -o disable_dns_lookups=yes and i dont think it may help Modify Postfix master.cf and main.cf Code: $cd /etc/postfix $vi main.cf ## add this line below content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 $vi master.cf ## add few line below into master.cf smtp-amavis unix - - n - 2 smtp -o smtp_data_done_timeout=1200 [B]-o disable_dns_lookups=yes[/B] 127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - n - - smtpd -o content_filter= -o local_recipient_maps= -o relay_recipient_maps= -o smtpd_restriction_classes= -o smtpd_client_restrictions= -o smtpd_helo_restrictions= -o smtpd_sender_restrictions= -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject -o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8 -o strict_rfc821_envelopes=yes smtp inet n - n - - smtpd Starting Postfix Code: $postfix start
