Got 7.3 installed Wednesday, things went so so. Been working on getting roundcubemail setup and firewalld is kicking my butt. I can't figure out all these zones. I opened imap, imaps, pop3, pop3s, smtp, smtps in zones internal, trusted and public. I still get connection refused. I telnet localhost 143, I get connection refused. What zone is used for the local network and what zone is used for outside access? Two days and can't access mail. Is this a Redhat brain child? According to firewalld.org, only Redhat, CentOS and Fedora are using it. Not too happy

No zone is involved. The zone for "outside" access depends on which interface receives the packet, and what zone you've put that interface in. I believe that defaults to "public."

I believe thatdefaults to> "public."I'm telneting in from ssh on a machine on the local network, still getting connection refused. The zone apparently means something because an interface can only be on one. Moving it to a different zone results in the same error (same services/ports opened in each zone). I may as well disable firewalld and let my router handle the firewall. I don't plan to use my server as a workstation.
