I succeeded to install Postfix on my box. I also installed mailman.I don't understand what mailman do. It's similar to SquirrelMail? If no can you guys recommend a web interface mail client like SquirrelMail?

Minus the Quota for the mailboxes, since I don't really care about that. But I don't think that should cause any problems in the configuration.

I tried to connect with Thunderbird and Kmail. Kmal brings up an error message eventually, saying something about a time-out.

I searched everything & everywhere only to see that more people have that same error message come up with Squirrelmail. From my understanding some have fixed the issue but I couldn't actually find a solution to this.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I am new to linux, just completed with configuring webmin on my new ubuntu server. I have installed myql, acpache etc. Now I wish to install the mail server. With which mail server should I go for the following use and I wish to also use squirrel mail.
The mail server would get connected to my online mail server from where it would fetch up emails and keep it here something like what mdaemon does in windows. And also send emails from this machine using smtp and pop3. How to do this kind of config and the best mail server
I have a really weird (but consistent) problem with my Kubuntu 10.10 install: I cannot post some HTTP forms.
First off, this is a client PC problem. My squirrelmail on the server works fine. I just use squirrelmail 1.4.17 to troubleshoot the ubuntu desktop problem
I used an old (07.04) Ubuntu install which worked fine. Then I wiped the disk and installed Kubuntu 10.10 on the same hardware. Everything works but **some** HTTP post does not work (I can log in but not send mail or save draft). I noticed I cannot log in to Yahoo, for example.
My webhosting account can display the apache access_log. When I hit the <Send> button the POST request never arrives to the web server.
I use a router (Dlink DL-604) behind a DSL modem and ooma box. There is a Windows 7 PC and a Kubuntu PC connected to the router. I can use squirrelmail just fine from the Windows PC.
I tried several steps:
- reinstalled Kubuntu
- installed Firefox and Chromium (on top of reconq)
- ran from a CD on my other (Windows 7) PC
- installed Wireshark and compared the traffic (but was unable to pinpoint a problem)
The result was the same: the <Send> button just keeps waiting; the POST request never makes it to the web server.
This sounds (and is) scary and suspect. The fact that the "demo" Kubuntu install (from the CD on my other Windows PC) using the reconq exhibits the same problem on a totally different hardware leads me to believe this may be related to Kubuntu. For example, I had to type this very message on the Windows PC as I could not post it on the forum from my Kubuntu box.
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.

My problem is quite simple, when I set up squirrelmail I only had one user on the server, and now that I have created new users, I can not log in to their accounts via squirrelmail I am using Maildir System is 10.04 server, running postfix and dovecot. I origionaly set up 'remote' as a user, I can send and recive mail on that account and log into squirrelmail
any new accounts can send email to remote(via outlook/thunderbird), to be seen in Squirrelmail, but get an invalid username/password when I try to log into squirrelmail in short, new accounts can not log into squirrelmail

View 1 Replies View RelatedI set up a mail server today. Everything works except I can't access the damn squirrelmail web interface from the internet.
I followed this guide here: [URL]
I can access http://192.168.0.50/squirrelmail just fine from a computer on my local network.
*BUT*
When I access http://mywanip/squirrelmail, i get a connection timeout.
When I access http://mywanip, I get the standard Apache "IT WORKS!" Page. (Rules out port forwarding)
According to the guide, that should allow me to access squirrelmail from the internet on my server. Its as if Squirrelmail is only available on my local interface and not on my wan interface? How do I check?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running Fedora 12 on x86_64. I've installed squirrelmail, along with dovecot on my office server, and cannot access it through http://localhost/webmail. I have followed all the configuration steps I could find (including http://www.server-world.info/en/note...12&p=httpd&f=7).
I know that everything else is working (I can send and receive mail, access IMAP mailboxes, webserver is working), browsing to
http://localhost/webmail
just gives me
"Problem loading page"
in Firefox. Sometimes, however the message is "Unable to connect."
I will add that I already tried installing Squirrelmail on another (i686) machine and had exactly the same problem.
/var/log/httpd/error_log says:
File does not exist: /var/www/html/squirrelmail
This makes it seem like aliasing is not working somehow.
What is the fastest setup to do this? All I want is an internally authenticated webmail server that other servers can send mail to for collection of test emails. Don't need LDAP or anything fancy, just a internal LAN only webmail server. I've got Squirrelmail setup on Ubuntu Server and can't get authentication setup with Squirrelmail and every tutorial I read is way over complicated or has nothing on how to authenticate Squirrelmail with internal, system users.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems with emails containing HTML content. When Google downloads the email messages via POP3 from my squirrelmail server, the message does not display using HTML. I'm not sure if this is Google's fault or Squirrelmail's fault, but I've never had problems before on other servers running the same script and using squirrelmail. If I login to squirrelmail, I have the option to download the email message as an attachment. The attachment, if opened by my local browser, shows up as HTML content, and it is properly formatted. However, I'm using Google to download my emails and file them under my Gmail account. After Gmail downloads the messages, it shows up like this:

I really need it to show up properly once Gmail downloads the messages, as it takes a long time to login to Squirrel mail and download each message as an attachment. My PHP Code Headers Look like this:
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . " ";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . " ";
$headers .= "From: $uname <$email>";
Someone suggested that I remove the from my script. I did, and now the email shows a from sender as www-data www-data@domain.com. Before, the from field showed up as empty. However, my PHP script is designed to change the sender's information to the clients that contact me. Thus, if customer A contacts me, the email should be from customer A <custa@whatever.com>. However, it's not being changed by the PHP script. It works on every other server but mine. I think my postfix configuration isn't setup properly? What needs to be configured on it?
I'm configuring a server but at this time I can't send mail. I tried using the PHP mail() function and it didn't work. Webmin says I have no mail configured. I'll be the only user and mail recipient. I've used Squirrelmail and Roundcube before and liked them.
Do I need to install Postfix in order to user Squirrelmail or Roundcube? How should I set up mail?

Our primary mail server is Exchange 2003 Standard on Windows Server 2003 Standard - don't shout at me; I inherited it already set up this way.I have a couple of hardware identical redundant servers (HP ML350 boxes), all with very fast 2 or 4 disk arrays, multiple core CPUs and plenty of memory, and I am looking at two potential new additions to the infrastructure.
A secondary mail server is high on my list of priories. I've been well and truly bitten by Exchange in the past and given that this particular box has been running four years straight and that it's mail store is dangerously large, having a secondary mail server in place suddenly makes a lot of sense.
A new Exchange 2010 box is currently being set up, but the secondary mail server will remain in place even when the new Exchange server is brought online, so this won't be a wasted exercise.... I also want a gateway box in place to filter and relay mail to the primary server, or to the secondary server if the primary is unavailable. Currently our outer perimeter is:
ISP supplied CISCO router
Draytek VigorPro 5510 UTM
Untangle running in bridged mode (primarily used for SPAM filtering, URL blacklisting, and very little else) Exchange 2003 sits behind the Untangle box. This is how I want to end up:
CISCO >> Draytek >> Ubuntu gateway >> Exchange/secondary mail server
I know I could replace/remove the Draytek but I want it to remain for several reasons, including lots of VPN dial-in users already configured and that it offers us an additional layer of email antivirus scanning before things hit the Exchange box. No point switching all of our remote workers over to new tunnels unnecessarily...
I have done some research and have started testing a pilot secondary mail server using Ubuntu/postfix DNS is properly set up and MX records and reverse PTR records are all present and correct, and things are looking encouraging so far. Before I go out over deep waters and start to flounder, has anyone who has done something like this got any obvious howlers I should be looking to avoid ?
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)
This is my main.cf:
[Code]...
The scenario: We have an external server that runs HTTP/DB servers for out shop system. Then, there's our local, in-house infrastructure that runs a.. yeah... Exchange 2010. The shop system on the external server needs to send mails to customers (order confirmations, invoices, etc.). seing as sending them directly through the local MTA (Postfix) would cause mail delivery problems because of reverse DNS issues, i've set the Postfix MTA to act as a satellite to our in-house Exchange Server, so the Exchange sends the mail instead, giving recipient mail servers a valid reverse DNS lookup.
Now, mails sent by the (proprietary, uneditable) shop system are relayed correctly and sent to the target e-mail address. My problem is: Mails not sent by the shop system, but by our own PHP scripts which run on that same external servers, are NOT relayed properly. So the Exchange is fine with the mails sent by the shop system, but not the mails sent by our scripts. This is what i get in the mail.log: The successfully relayed mail sent by the shop system:
[Code]....
Two exchange servers internally. One is setup for example.com (192.168.1.10) and the other is setup for example2.com (192.168.1.20) Both are behind a single public IP.
I want to use postfix to sit in front of the two exchange servers. Postfix will accept mail for both domains and relay to the appropriate server. I have postfix installed with only defaults at this point.
I need a good GUI interface for my mail account. Like we use gmail, yahoo, rediff. Is their any free GUI interface.
