    Have you attempted to check your mail via a webmail client (ie squirrelmail)?

    Also are you attempting to connect via POP or IMAP?

    Did you disable SELinux?
    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ?

    SE Linux is disabled.
    the output of netstat -tap is:

    pop gave me:

    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
    Escape character is '^]'.
    +OK Hello there.

    +OK Password required.
    pass ********
    -ERR chdir mexus.org/master/ failed
    Connection closed by foreign host.

    so I did that:

    mkdir /home/vmail/mexus.org/master
    mkdir /home/vmail/mexus.org/cur
    chmod 777 /home/vmail/mexus.org/cur

    Now I'm able to login to my e-mail master (at) mexus.org via pop3
    Squirrelmail cannot login: Unknown user or password incorrect.

    You must send an email first to a new account before you can fetch mails. The Maildir gets created automatically when the first email arrives.

    and... just to be clear... all login attempts to new accounts will fail until a new mail is received into the account. No user can login until the maildir is created.

    is there a way to make the maildir automaticly or a way to send an e-mail to the new users?
    Few other questions:

    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

    is there a way to fix that:
    Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=neutral (google.com: 85.11.172.153 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of master(at)mexus.org) smtp.mail=master(at)mexus.org

    2) When i send mail to gmail.com for example they arrive for 1-2 sec, if i send to abv.bg it's there after 2hours? What's the problem. Before 3 mounts i ran a qmail server and it send e-mails to abv.bg as fast as to gmail and all main webmail,

    3) My ISP cannot give me an reverse dns, so i don't have ptr. What are methods to prevent my messages form beeing marked as spam.

    You could either write a script that automatically sends an email, or you do it manually with your email client.
    Does your domain have an SPF record? Also, please check if your server is blacklisted: http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx

    That's bad. You can try to relay your mails through another mail server: http://www.howtoforge.com/postfix_relaying_through_another_mailserver
