Hello List: I am trying to install Postfix, MySQL, dbMail on a freshly installed RH9 box as follows:
Postfix Server: mail.tibinternet.net IP Address: 12.21.237.16 I installed Postfix (with MySQL) & tested it by sending an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message is forwarded to my email in /etc/aliases) & I did receive the message. Then I created a manual message: telnet localhost 25 >MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >DATA >. >QUIT The message was forwarded to my email. I did more testing by sending messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] & they all were received. Then I installed dbMail & by following the installation in "http://www.helgrim.com/dbmaildocs/installation.html". I added a user account: #dbmail-adduser a testmail testmail 0 25000000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now I am running into problems. First of all I can not make a connection to pop.tibinternet.net server from another PC. The connection is refused saying that either the IP address is wrong or server is not responding. I can PING pop.tibinternet.net. I can also "telnet" server pop.tibinternet.net. I have checked into the logs (/var/log/maillog) there is nothing there. Postfix is running. One more interesting thing: I sent an email to a wrong address "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and it is logged into the log on the Postfix server as a rejected message (no such email address. I have not received the rejected message yet. I do have a firewall but both ports 25 & 110 are open. So PLEASE help. Why I can't connect to port 110 to retrieve messages? Thanks in advance. Kirti
