similar to: dovecot and postfix, help?

Alright so after checking logs, rebooting the vps because why not, and removing and re-adding the account in thunderbird... Now nothing is working other than sending mail from gmail to the domain. imap does not pick up the email and trying to send with the domain just plain fails, saying it can't connect to the server. Honestly, tempted to uninstall dovecot, sasl and postfix and start

Hello, im all new to this but feel i want to have a dedicated server to handle my mails from Gmail and Hotmail Basically, i installed SMS, superb Mini Server (based on slackware), and with that default install i got: dovecot, postfix, fetchmail and sendmail.

Hello, I just installed dovecot and postfix on a Fedora Core VPS. The VPS will not allow me to ssh directly as user "root" i.e.: I must first login as a non-root user and then "su" into root. My question is: is there a way to read my root mail through Dovecot ? How should I setup the Thunderbird account ? Thank you... SJ

Tere. Recently just migrated from Sendmail 8.14.3 to Postfix 2.5.6 and switched from Cyrus-sasl 2.1.22 to Dovecot 1.1.13 sasl, all are compiled from source and I have used Dovecot for a long time, since alpha versions. Everything worked well for Outlook Express, Outlook and Thunderbird clients, but Microsoft Entourage 2004 or 2008 clients smtps fails - "Authentication failed because

Hi, I have an fc18 system with postfix and dovecot-2.1.13 and have configured them to use sasl for SMTP Auth and Maildir with imaps. The system is running now, so I'm trying to set up thunderbird to autodetect all settings during the initial account setup. However, it seems to want to use port 143 and STARTTLS, and not port 993, which is what I would expect. When I force it to use 993, I

Hi. I'm trying to get Dovecot - Postfix - SASL to work. But I need some help.

hey friends, I am trying to make postfix run with tls in chroot mode, but I am not able to send the messages with tls on. I am using postfix 2.2.10 on centos 4.0 and I had compiled the postfix from sources with tls & cyrus-sasl support. I copied the certificates from /usr/share/ssl to /etc/postfix. Below are the errors I am getting: May 25 13:27:51 test1 postfix/smtpd[4095]: warning: TLS

Hello all. Thank you for your service. Easy when you know how, but presently I do not. After literally months of research and experimentation we simply cannot log into our PAM / apache2 / postfix / dovecot pop3/imap STARTTLS email server with an ordinary email client, e.g., Evolution or Thunderbird. We can connect to the host server in a host of different ways (no pun intended)?http, https, ssh,

Hello list. I have a mail server where I use Postfix+SASL. Everything works fine. Sending emails when using client (Outlook, Thunderbird or anything else) require authorization. It is OK. But on the same server there is a Squirrelmail which sends emails as a localhost. To send email in this way there is no any authorization. Besides one preson use PINE on the server... How to do that

Hello to all! I apologize in advance, for the following could be too simple, but I can't figure it out. I configured a vps using centos 8, all is working fine but I'm not able to send email from this server. I tried $ telnet smtp.mailtrap.io 25 but it doesn't work yet $ telnet www.google.ca 80 does work and particularly $ telnet smtp.mailtrap.io 2525 does work too. I temporarily

Thanks to Timo, I have solved all but one of my problems. For back ground, I am using Samba4 as an AD. I have the userdb working from LDAP just fine and kerberos authenetication for dovecot's IMAP server working fine. The problem is using dovecot's SASL with postfix. I also have plain/login working in imap and smtp. Both use pam_krb5 through pam to authenticate clients that don't have

Greetings, I have CentOS 6.2 running on our server with a VPS provider (Linode.com). I need to configure Postfix, dovecot, MySQL to work for virtual domains (multiple domains on our server). The only instructions for setting up Email with Postfix, Dovecot and MySQL my host provides is for the configuration on CentOS 5 which is here: http://library.linode.com/email/postfix/dovecot-mysql-centos-5

I have mail server on CentOS 4.1. Sasl authorization for SMTP is enabled. Thunderbird sends mail, but Outlook get an error 554, Relay access denied, error number 0x800CCC79 Outlook has a login and password for SMTP enabled. It is strange, because there is no any sign of authorize in maillog when Outlook try to send mail. -- ____________________________________________________________________ D

Hi, I've recently migrated my emails from a Yahoo account to my own mailserver on a VPS. Ever since then, Thunderbird seems to have issues with the mailbox's directory structure: When I start Thunderbird, it immediately deletes the local copies of all 3rd-level folders (i.e. subfolders of a subfolder of a folder in the mailbox root). Since that didn't happen with the Yahoo account, I

Let's say I have a postfix box, named mail.thespider.com, which is setup to handle virtual mailbox domains. One of these domains will handle is, thespider.com, and my email address in that domain is boris at thespider.com. As I setup dovecot, I can telnet to the pop3 port (110) and test it by logging in as boris at thespider.com (I would try the imap port but I do not know how to login to imap

I am moving away from Cyrus, I'm trying to migrate to Dovecot. I am trying to get Sieve working with Dovecot and Postfix and it just won't work. Postfix is able to delived new messages to the "new" subfolder of the inbox structure. After I run Thunderbird, the new message gets moved to "cur" and it shows up in my inbox. So far so good. But now I'm trying to add

Hi, I'm running our local school's mail server on CentOS 7, Postfix and Dovecot. We get quite a lot of spam, so I have the following sender restrictions in my /etc/postfix/main.cf: --8<------------------------------------------------------ # Restrictions SMTP smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_unknown_helo_hostname smtpd_sender_restrictions = reject_unknown_sender_domain,

Any suggestions to help me troubleshoot a "killed by signal 11" problem with Postfix? I've Googled and fiddled, but cannot figure it out. I have no idea where to look/start. Based on this post, Wietse suggests this type of problem happens when there compiled with different libraries. I tried ldd on various programs and found they all seemed to line up, but I know little.
