Hello all , mr Newbie here.. I have a question. I want to set up (just as the title implies ) on a server that is also my FW/ Router, Web host etc.. Nothing Fancy.. This is my first attempt with a clean install. I was wondering if anyone can answer this. Is it super important to vi /etc/host with 192.168.0.1 server1.example.com server 1 (since that's what I use for local) as instructions say? Or can do I need to use the external... on the Hosts file? I have yet to do anything but yum update so I want to make sure I get it correct from the get go.. Not sure I understand it all but what better way to learn right??? I will wait a bit to... Thanks
Still AHHHHHHHH Okay, I did take care of the erros that were poping. Now everything seemed fine.. I created a user etc.. I sent from my Laptop to it and from webmail and also sent to another account.. The emails went out ok (so I thought) but they are no where to be found... I am really confused here... My set up is modeled after the howto page with minor diff.. Well not so minor and perhaps that is my problem.. Anyway, here are the diffs.. I created the home deirectory under a larger drive not /home/vmail.. /myurl/vmail. and I am using this system for every server need. That is http, ftp, samba, email and as a router.. All others are working except (samba) but I will start that after all is okay. By the way ( I am using FC5 64 ) I will post log files as soon as I know whic ones to look at.. or am asked to by some kind person with patients of a god... Well I will check back here again.. Thanks in advance
Oh I got my mail log here is my mail log I removed the host and names to protect the guilty I changed my host name.. did not want servewr1.myhost.com so I just made it myhost.com If anyone can tell me from here what is wrong then perhaps I can figure it out.. Having the answer will not make me cry either /usr/bin/unfreeze Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .Z at /usr/bin/gzip -d Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .gz at /usr/bin/gzip -d Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .bz2 at /usr/bin/bzip2 -d Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .lzo at /usr/bin/lzop -d Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .rpm at /usr/bin/rpm2cpio Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .cpio at /usr/bin/pax Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .tar at /usr/bin/pax Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .deb at /usr/bin/ar Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Internal decoder for .zip Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: No decoder for .rar tried: rar, unrar Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .arj at /usr/bin/arj Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .arc at /usr/bin/nomarch Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: No decoder for .zoo tried: zoo, unzoo Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: No decoder for .lha tried: lha Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .cab at /usr/bin/cabextract Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: No decoder for .tnef tried: tnef Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Internal decoder for .tnef Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found decoder for .exe at /usr/bin/arj Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Using internal av scanner code for (primary) ClamAV-clamd Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Found secondary av scanner ClamAV-clamscan at /usr/bin/clamscan Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere imapd: bind: Address already in use Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere amavis[2536]: Creating db in /var/spool/amavisd/db/; BerkeleyDB 0.27, libdb 4.3 Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere imapd-ssl: bind: Address already in use Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere pop3d: bind: Address already in use Oct 21 21:11:34 myhostnamehere pop3d-ssl: bind: Address already in use Oct 21 21:11:35 myhostnamehere sendmail[2573]: alias database /etc/aliases rebuilt by root Oct 21 21:11:35 myhostnamehere sendmail[2573]: /etc/aliases: 76 aliases, longest 10 bytes, 765 bytes total Oct 21 21:11:40 myhostnamehere postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system Oct 21 21:11:40 myhostnamehere postfix/master[2619]: daemon started -- version 2.2.8, configuration /etc/postfix Oct 21 21:12:42 myhostnamehere dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<this_is_me>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.0.8, lip=::ffff:24.38.113.154 Oct 21 21:12:42 myhostnamehere dovecot: POP3(this_is_me): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 Oct 21 21:12:44 myhostnamehere dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<this_is_me>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.0.8, lip=::ffff:24.38.113.154 Oct 21 21:12:44 myhostnamehere dovecot: POP3(this_is_me): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 Oct 21 21:15:36 myhostnamehere dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<this_is_me>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.0.8, lip=::ffff:24.38.113.154 Oct 21 21:15:36 myhostnamehere dovecot: POP3(this_is_me): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/smtpd[3210]: connect from web56503.mail.re3.yahoo.com[66.196.97.32] Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/trivial-rewrite[3214]: warning: do not list domain myhostnamehere.com in BOTH mydestination and virtual_mailbox_domains Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/smtpd[3210]: 859382F72D6: client=web56503.mail.re3.yahoo.com[66.196.97.32] Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/cleanup[3219]: 859382F72D6: message-id=<[email protected]> Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/qmgr[2627]: 859382F72D6: from=<[email protected]>, size=1751, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Oct 21 21:18:43 myhostnamehere postfix/smtpd[3210]: disconnect from web56503.mail.re3.yahoo.com[66.196.97.32] Oct 21 21:18:44 myhostnamehere amavis[2725]: (02725-01) (!)connect_to_sql: unable to connect to DSN 'DBI:mysql:database=mail;host=127.0.0.1;port=3306': Access denied for user 'mailmin'@'localhost' (using password: YES) Oct 21 21:18:44 myhostnamehere amavis[2725]: (02725-01) (!!)TROUBLE in process_request: connect_to_sql: unable to connect to any dataset at (eval 43) line 218, <GEN5> line 5.

Amavisd cannot connect to your MySQL database. Please check your amavisd.conf. Also, it seems as if you have some other processes running on the POP3 and IMAP ports: What's the output of Code: netstat -tap ? I strongly recommend to follow the tutorial as close as possible. Maybe it's a good idea to do a clean reinstall.
yes I though I might have to... Thanks. Here is netsat -tap. I might try to recover from this but fresh install might be best at this point...
