CentOS - Mar 2013 - Postfix (Roundcube client) sends mail, but not able to receive

Dear All
Recently I just setup postfix, dovecot, roundcube etc in a dedicated server.
>From roundcuble, I am able to send mail to my gmail account.
But from my gmail account, when sent mail to my mail id, that I setup
recently, I do not see that email in roundcuble inbox. Neither that mail
bounced back in gmail. Not sure, how do I debug this.

Kindly let me know how should I proceed to fix this issue.

Thanks
Austin

First look in your posftix log to see if there has been an attempt to
deliver it.   If it hasn't gotten that far, make sure that your DNS MX
record is visible to the rest of the world and also the A record for
the name in the MX.   Then check that there are no firewalls blocking
port 25 either from the internet
service provider or your router, or your host.

These are easiest if you have some outside account where you can:
dig -t MX your_domain.com
then
dig name_of_MX_host
then
telnet IP_address 25
and you should get an SMTP ready prompt from your postfix.

If your domain name did not resolve in DNS at all, gmail should have
rejected it immediately, but it may resolve to the wrong address or
the connection may be blocked somewhere and it would retry for a
while.

Looks I did not start amavisd service. Thats why probably connection to
127.0.0.1:10024 is being refused.
I tried starting amavisd service. Gets bunch of erropr as below.

Hi Les Mikesell
The rpm installed in my m/c is *amavisd-new-2.6.4-2.el6.noarch*.

I believe it is from epel (I have epel repo enabled).


Is it incompatible?

Regards
Austin

An unmodified version seems to start OK.  Are you sure you have the
64-bit versions of perl and related packages installed?
rpm -q --qf "%{n}-%{version}.%{arch}\n" perl

-- 
  Les Mikesell
     lesmikesell at gmail.com

perl-5.10.1.x86_64

This is the output of command "rpm -q --qf
"%{n}-%{version}.%{arch}\n"
perl".

So must be 64 bit compatible one.

should I uninstall  this rpm and reinstall again

regards
austin

So how did something get installed at:
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Mail/Header.pm?

If it is from a package,
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Mail/Header.pm
should tell you.   Try to install the right version of that.
