Hi, well right now I have a problem. I don't know if the problem is with dovecot or postfix or both??
Well anyways, I can send an e-mail to my e-mail address but when I use thunderbird or anything to check my mailbox I see it empty even though I tested it by sending an e-mail from gmail.com to my account. I get no error message or get the mail sent back to my gmail account. So, I assume it went thru without any issues. However, dovecot will show my mailbox empty.
Then if I try and send an e-mail out from my mail server aka postfix to gmail email account. I get a nice error message saying relay access denied. I can only send a message to e-mail accounts within my mail server. However, I still won't see the mailbox to hav an e-mail in it... however when sent... I would see in the sent folder my e-mail there.
I am using ssl/tls for logging in. I would like to know what I can do to fix the problem. I am not using linux but using unix freebsd and I have tried their forums already and the help provided there didn't help any. If someone could give me any suggestions on where I should look to figure out how the mail is being delivered and what folder. I am assuming that postfix is storing the e-mails in another folder then what I have dovecot setup with. Also if anyone can give me any suggestions to fix the sending the e-mail out on why I get a relay error message and how to fix it. I would appreciate it. I know this is a Ubuntu / linux form but I tried to ask here for any possible suggestions that would lead me to a solution to the problems I am having.
Thank you for your time...
