I followed this guide: http://library.linode.com/email/postfix/dovecot-mysql-debian-6-squeeze I can send locally, receive from everywhere but I still can't send from email clients such as Thunderbird. Could I please get some guidance? fabian |

You will need to post log excerpts for us to have a chance at helping you. A big help would be editing your postfix master.cf file and adding a '-v' switch to the 'submission' or 'smtps' entry, like so: http://derfy.net/images/linode01.png Reload postfix (something like 'postfix reload' as root) and try to send mail again. Then pastebin the log entry (http://pastebin.linode.com/) from your mail log (/var/log/mail.log for me) in a post here and we'll try to help out. |

It was all a typo!!! Thank you for the -v tip! After restarting the postfix service (this time -v) I got a Code: warning: SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such file or directory I checked the SASL configuration and found a typo on Code: OPTIONS="-c -m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauth -r" missing a "d"... It's all happiness now. Thank you, derfy. |
