| Post subject: | Postfix Dovecot listen to mail.domain & smtp.domain |
Hello, I have followed and installed this tutorial perfectly and everything works as it should work. But how do I make the mail server listen to the subdomains mail.domain.com and smtp.domain.com? So I can connect to it from my mail clients on my laptop etc.. I do receive the emails on the server. 
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid LTS 32bit Thanks in advance, WouterDS |

Have you created records in DNS for "mail" and "smtp"? I think it's just that easy... If you want to accept mail addressed to user@mail.domain.com or user@smtp.domain.com you'll need to add entries to mydestination in main.cf for Postfix as well. |

Oops. I now realize I haven't done that yet. I have now set my DNS like this (is this correct?). 
But still no luck. This is what I expected to see (tried it on the localhost) 
This is what I get to see (remote, from home) 
Thanks |

OMG. I have found it. Every ISP in my country has to block port 25 by law. Sorry for this useless post. Regards, WouterDS |

You can usually get around that by utilizing the submission port 587. -- Travis |
