Hello, New user here, I am not an admin but was forced to move from a managed vps to an unmanaged vps and am having trouble configuring email. Right now imap and pop3 via dovecot are working, sending email from remote email client is working, but receiving email is not.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
