Hi Erwan,
As root do /usr/sbin/lsof -i:25
You'll see what smtp server is on.
Note that a smtp server is needed by several basic Unix utilities (like
cron).
Hmm, looks like postfix.
lsof -i:25
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
master 10288 root 12u IPv4 15076 0t0 TCP *:smtp (LISTEN)
So, postfix is listening? Maybe I misconfigured it.
How do you know it is postfix? There is nothing here which indictes it.
Is it because you know you have postfix installed so that is why you say
"looks like postfix".?
A misconfiguration? Who knows? It probably doesn't matter for your
problem.
There are only two ways to get email. Either it is delivered to you or
you go and collect it, often with POP3, What method do you use? Have it
delivered or go to collect?
master is the name of the main postfix process. But note that having a
MTA running won't get emails from the provider pop3 server...
Typically, you should also see a couple of smtpd processes as well as
master. Install the psmisc process and run pstree to get a handle on
what's running, which processes own which other processes, and the order
in which they all came up.
What's also missing here, is what DNS records are being advertised about
your box.
