    Hi, just finished installing ISP Config 3 with perfect server guide on Ubuntu server 12.04 and created a domain and a email mailbox for that domain.

    I can receive emails from that email box and squirrelmail, from gmail and my google apps accounts, but when replying, the email get sent, but can't receive it on the destination mailboxes.

    Where can I start looking?

    Thanks a lot!

    Well, erased mail.log and restarted, and logging started again, here is the log, it seems that can not connect on port 25, maybe my ISP is blocking it?

    Yes, thats a possible reason. If your ISP offers a mail relay server to send outgoing email, then you can set this mailserver under System > Server config > mail.

    Hi, I will call mi ISP, because I have used ISPConfig in the past with no problems. Meanwhile, is there any configuration to use postfix on alternate ports?

    Thanks a lot!

    Well, my ISP Arnet is blocking port 25, they confirmed it. Is there any config that I may change to get POSTFIX use alternate ports (587, 465) instead?

    Thanks!

    edit master.cf and change:

    Code:
    smtp      inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    #submission inet n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    
    for this:

    Code:
    #smtp      inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    submission inet n       -       -       -       -       smtpd
    
    and restart postfix

    Code:
    /etc/init.d/postfix restart
    
    Cheers!

    Hello,

    Try settings this smtp server as relay:
    smtp.arnet.com.ar
