I've worked with ubuntu linux several times. I'm still a beginner for the most part I'd say. Long story short, I'm having difficulties creating a mailserver on my VPS.
I have server.domain.com as my VPS address.
I have domain www.domain.com (http://www.domain.com) as my website.
I need to create a MX record that points to mail.domain.com > which I assume will point to my VPS...
I have WEBMIN installed. I was able to install dovecot and that is working fine?
This is the dovecot imap test
root@connect:~# telnet localhost imap
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready.
This is the dovecot pop3 test
root@connect:~# telnet localhost pop3
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Dovecot ready.
I have Sendmail and Postfix installed. I've tried multiple documentation and I'm still unable to get a mailserver to work. From within webmin I can send mail out no problem. I'm unable to receive any mail to any of the users.
Please help!
