No, it's not my first mailserver, but I have lost my previous configuration
the question "if i need both" cares me a little bit because logically a foreign
mailserver has a MX record for you and will always use 25 because he will not
How can I find out which mailserver has MX for me?
but it sounds like this is your first mailserver because your last question
shows you are missing basics - one of them is how can anybody lose a whole
configuration - backups anywhere!
no other mailserver has MX for you
you have to know if your mailserver is MX
the other mailserver says "hm mail for b...@domain.tld", who is MX for
"domain.tld"
if there is your mailserver used he will try to deliver to your server on
port 25
so if your mailserver is MX for any domain you need port 25
if your mailserver is only a relay with authentication you need only
submission, but this depends on the roles your mailserver is playing
and has nothing to do with a lost configuration - these facts are
the base of the needed configuration
Thanks Reindl for your insight. Unfortunately I had no backups, and it
looks like this thread has been going on for days for nothing. Thanks all :)
