I was running Ubuntu 9.04, no problems. I did a new installation of 10.04 and could not send or receive mail (Thunderbird). Both would time out. tried two other mail programs to see if Thunderbird was the problem, but they did the same.So I did dual boot installation, with 9.04 and 10.04. The same: mail OK in 9.04 but not in 0.04. So that seemed to eliminate everything as a problem outside of my computer.One night I remembered that ipv6 could be a cause, and toggled it in Thunderbird. It has been an "almost". I can now receive but not send.For example, the bottom bar will say: "Connecting to smtp.edicionescc.com" and after a while time out.I can ping smtp.edicionescc.com with no problem
I set up my mail server using the guide here: [URL] I am able to receive mail, I can send mail locally, but I can't send to external addresses. This is in my mail.log: Quote: Jun 30 14:40:43 Server postfix/smtp[10725]: 2FD9322015BF: to=<myemail@gmail.com>, relay=none, delay=1634, delays=1484/0.02/150/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.65.27]:25: Connection timed out)
i basically had this system installed for our mail system.The setup is as follows:
1. Operating system installed is Debian ver. 5.0.3
2. Roundcube is installed as a webmail(if its right for me to say that)
3. The server is hosted right here at our offices
4.The server uses relay system to send mail i.e. relays all our mails to our ISP
That all i can say about the configurations becuase thats as much as i understand it.The problem now is that we are not able to send or recieve emails from both internal and external.I tried to send mail to a collegue in the office who is on our local LAN,Roundcube says sent successfully but the person does not recieve the mail.i tried to send to my yahoo address but nothing.I dont know where these mails have been trapped.
I have configured fetchmail, sendmail/postfix and mutt to act as a relay to receive mail. I can receive mail fine but I cannot send mail. Its working fine on my one box but on the one acting as a nat I am having issues. This is my mail log from the nat box.
so I'm really new to using Linux, and I searched the forums, but most people seem to have trouble sending mail, not receiving it. When I send mail from the CLI, it gets delivered fine (from travis@travishoward.net) But when I try to reply or mail to the server, I get this message back:
Code: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <travis@travishoward.net> (reason: 554 5.7.1 <travis@travishoward.net>: Relay access denied)
I have Linux mail server, It always encounter this problem, when i shut down or restart the server. You cannot receive mail but you can send..i use the following services:
iptables -F service iptables restart service sendmail restart
My server already installed and works well, but I can't send or receive mail with Squirrelmail, the error that appears is: Server replied: 67 Can not execute command '/ usr / sbin / sendmail-t-i-fteste@gabinetedeengenharia.com '.
Using Ubuntu 11 and have just managed to get wireless working. It used to be a wired connection but when I moved needed to go wireless. Now for some reason the send/receive icon is faded and I can send or receive messages.
I recently purchased a domain and I have setup what I believe are correct dns records from the domain companies control panel. I have the domain pointing to my server and that's working fine. I also have an MX record for my domain. Now, I can send emails from my email account just fine however I cannot receive any emails coming in to my account. Heres an example:
[dalton@int-interactive mail]$ echo "hello world" | sendmail -v dalton@int-interactive.com dalton@int-interactive.com... Connecting to [127.0.0.1] via relay... 220 int-interactive.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.13.8/8.13.8; Sun, 21 Aug 2011 14:45:16 -0400
nstalled Postfix + Dovecot + Roundcube on a plain CentOS 5.5 box, let say on "site.com".I cant send or receive emails. When I try to telnet from both localhost and from the outside world, it can not reach the mail server.Testing itself on port 25:
In my continuing quest to live without X most of the time, I am trying to set up fetchmail and Mutt to get and send mail. I only want to be able to send and receive text based mail, and so far I am running into trouble with what I think should be pretty simple. For receiving my mail, I believe I only need to create a .fetchmailrc file in my home directory with the entry:
Code: poll [URL] protocol pop3 username "myusername" password "mypassword" But I get: 2 messages for myusername at mail.myISP.com (7965 octets). fetchmail: connection to localhost:smtp [127.0.0.1/25] failed: Connection refused. fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from wetumpka@mail.btopenworld.com and delivering to SMTP host localhost reading message myusername@pop-smtp.ISP.mail.fy5.b.yahoo.com:1 of 2 (2734 octets)fetchmail: Query status=10 (SMTP)
It appears to me that it is finding mail but does not know where to deliver it and is refused a connection to my machine. Also, I cannot figure out how to set up my SMTP for my ISP in Mutt to send mail. Can someone point me to a simple tutuorial on how to do these things. I really only want to do what you would with Thunderbird, but from the command line.
I want to configure a single mail server to send and receive mail from multiple sub domains of my domain. I've already installed Postfix/Dovecot and it is perfectly working for mydomain.com. And also installed roundcube for Web Mail. Can I further customize this setup to process mail to sub domains? ex- someone@subdomain1.mydomain.com, someone@subdomain2.mydomain.com, someone2@subdomain1.mydomain.com (someone@subdomain1.mydomain.com and someone@subdomain2.mydomain.com are 2 separate users. they should be able to log on to web interface separately)
Currently i use system account names as email user names. (ex - systemusername@mydomain.com). The only MX record in my domain DNS pointed to current server (mailhost.mydomain.com). I read about postfix virtual domains. but couldnt figure out how to use it to achive my target. I do not need configuration details. Just explain me the way to do it. I can do the rest my self.
i'm using fedora 12 and i wanna send mail using command $mail actually i tried to send mail to my gmail , yahoo ,and hotmail emails but i didn't receive the mail so i expect that i should have some configuration on my host before sending mai
I am connected to the internet with a Rogers Rocket Stick, when I want to check my mail in Evolution the "send and receive" tab is not highlighted. It was working yesterday when I was connected through wireless why is that and how do I fix it ?
I installed Ubunto remix on a Netbook but I can not connect my Laptop with ubuntu to my Netbook with ubuntu, both these computers are connected on the network, it asked for the password to be able to connect on both computers but I cant get the two to communicate with each other .... yesterday when I still had windows xp on my Netbook I had no problem connecting the two computers ...
I use Evolution mail and use 2 PCs When I send mail it saves it to my current PC but not to the other PC so instead i want it to save the sent to the email server i'm using.
I have set up postfix and dovecot as per the Ubuntu anual and appear to have a functioning mail server.Using the sendmail command I can send mail and I receive mail in ~/Maildir. Using Thunderbird I can read any mails received but I can't send any mail from Thunderbird. I have tried with both STARTTLS and SSL/TLS and whilst I get the prompt for a password I keep getting the message my password for my server is wrong.I have ports 25, 465, 587 and 993. Is that all the right ports?When I ping my domain name it resolves to my router name whereas I believe it should resolve to my IP. Could there be a problem with my host file? I've had a play but to no avail.Here's the error in mail.log.
on ubuntu 8.04 and evolution has stopped sending or receiving when click send/receive button. it flashes something but too fast to read. i have renamed mail folder but no go. i have checked settings but no go. i have reinstalled evoulution from synaptic but no go.
i think i have a corrupt file or something like that.
I'm having trouble to send and receive e-mail using Thunderbird 3. When I tried setting up new account using the automatic configuration method,the result of scanning pop. and smtp. server returned 'none' with this orange circle. I assume it's the same problem that occurred when I first tried to install Evolution. But oddly,I manage to access the web-mail account provided by the ISP using the same information used to set-up Evolution and Thunderbird 3. Precisely I'm from Malaysia and the ISP is Streamyx.com. PC run on Ubuntu 9.10.And I've heard that the ISP is non-friendly of non standard e-mail applications.
I have a desktop that has been running Ubuntu for years. Finally I convinced my wife to get rid of windows XP and move to Lucid. I did a clean install of Lucid on her system writing over windows. After the install I installed Thunderbird using Synaptic Version 3.0.6 was installed on her system. On my desktop I am also running Thunderbird 3.0.6 We have several domains and mail servers on those domains.
They all use SMTP First, I installed the ISP email and that works perfectly. She can send and receive using our ISP's mail server. I then set up an email account in Thunderbird using the SMTP email server form one of our domains. She used to be able to send and receive from for one of our domains. She can receive email from that email server, but can not send (I can send and receive from the same domain using Thunderbird) Her SMTP and mine are set up identically:
Server Name: mail.[domain] Port: 50 Username: [user]@[domain] Secure Authentication: No Connection Security: No
She is able to receive email but when she tries to send. the connection in Thunderbird either times out. or gives a password error. The password is correct, because we can use Firefox, and go to the pop and log in.Also, she can receive email direct on her computer and has to log in using her password. So I opened Terminal and tested using:
telnet mail.[domain] 50
I got
Trying [IP address] Connected to mail.[domain] Escape character is '^']'. 220 mail.[domain]
This leads me to believe something in Ubuntu is blocking her system from using Thunderbird to send emails through the email server. I've been at this for several days now. I did try totally un-installing Thunderbird using Synaptic. Then manually deleting the .Thunderbird file. Then doing a fresh install of Thunderbird using Synaptic. Still get the same results I am thinking that maybe App Armor is stopping this? Or perhaps some other security issue in Ubuntu like Linux Security Module? Otherwise the installation went flawlessly. We even got Skype working on the first try! Printers installed correctly and perfectly too.
Running Evolution 2.23.3.1 on a laptop with 8.04 installed. (Running 8.04 for good reasons - please don't query). I've been running perfectly for some time, but today when I booted up and opened Evolution to check my mail, the first sign of something odd was that it didn't ask me to unlock the keyring. Then I noticed that the send/receive was greyed out.
I rebooted several times with no change. I've clicked on Permissions in the File menu, but that doesn't then show any window, which is what I would expect, thinking that something has changed. Other than accepting all the usual update manager's recommended installs, nothing has changed on this laptop for several weeks.
I have tried setting up my hotmail account in evolution. I followed the steps from the following link: [URL] at the end it said click send receive, but the button is not enabled for me.
I have got a nagios server running on my network, The configuration seems to be okay but each time there is a service alert notification, and an e-mail is sent to the contact group, Nagios continuously sends e-mail over and over again. Do anyone know of a way to set Nagios directives to only send one e-mail per alert without it flooding mail boxes.
I had configured sendmail on linux 5.2, Iam using public ip and my domain is registered[linuxforfreshers.info]. I am facing a issue that when I mail with the user sumit@linuxforfreshers.info then I am able to do it. But if somebody tries to send mail to the same user then it bounce backs. I had made the entry of domain in /etc/mail/local-host-name and also I put ok in /etc/mail/access.The mails are working properly with in LAN. But not able to work on WAN only I can send mail but not able to recieve mail.What else I need to do.
