Post subject:  postfix cant receive mails, blocked linode port?

Hi everyone!

Im losing my mind with postfix in my linode, i can send mail from my domain to a gmail account i have, but when i send from gmail to my domain i never receive it. Another weird issue is that when i send an email from my domain (abc@domain.com) to myself (abc@domain.com) it never sends it, it stays in queue, in postfix logs appears connection to port 25 refused and never sends it, does linode block port 25 on every linodes??? what would be the problem??

Thanks

Regards,

David M.

250 ok

I can connect to domain.com's MX just fine (ignoring the misconfiguration).

Without logs or configuration settings, it would be hard to see what is wrong.

No. Atlanta is the only data center with any filtering, and port 25 is open (and heavily used by many).
