Hello,

I have had some serious trouble setting up email on my webserver.

I was able to send mails, but not with a return addresss. So I decided to follow this guide:

http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...ispconfig-3-p5

and now even the command line mail doesn't work. The mail log has this as the tail:
