RE: Mail setup pop, smtp, blah blah blah - kilburn - 08-04-2009 03:52 PM
Ok, let's try another thing. Try this two things:
1. Login to the server through ssh and execute "telnet localhost 25". It should show a Ispcp SMTPd banner (or something like this), write "quit" and it'll close.
2. From your machine, execute "telnet ip.of.your.server 25". The same thing as above shoud happen.
Results:
- If (1) doesn't work (connection refused or timed out), there's some serious problem with postfix (unlikely).
- If (1) works but (2) doesn't (most probable), then your provider is blocking your outgoing connections to port 25.
A someone has said before, you can use the 587 port, but only after enabling it! Uncomment the "submission" line in /etc/postfix/master.cf and restart postfix, and then repeat the telnet tests again but changing 25 by 587.

This is getting weird
myhostname:~# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
myhostname:~# telnet localhost 587
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

Are you running this on your local machine or on the server?
RE: Mail setup pop, smtp, blah blah blah - djmega01 - 08-06-2009 02:59 AM
I can telnet on both ports from the server, but not from my home lapto
The results I posted are from my laptop
I took 2 days to think and reinstall everything but still having this email issue.
Thanks.

well some firewall may block this (your own, your isps, your hoster...)
RE: Mail setup pop, smtp, blah blah blah - djmega01 - 08-06-2009 04:11 AM
Both ports??
My server only have IPTables
I tried telnet from home, from my office at the Data Center where the server is, I built another computer under the same netmask and it still not working
I'll keep reading online until I find a solution then will post it here.

I think the problem is here, but can't tell what it is.
I can telnet to ports like 110, 21, 22 from home but not to 25 nor 587
Thanks for the quick reply
