First off, I am a newbie to this but my goals are simple: host a single website and have a single functioning email address that forwards to gmail or I can add as a POP3 to gmail.
What I’ve done so far:
-Started with a fresh CentOS 6.5 VPS (on digitalocean if that’s relevant).
-Updated, and installed perl.
-Installed virtualmin via the script.
-Added DNS records on digitalocean and turned off bind.
-Added user “support” which is the email address I need functioning.
-I’ve not changed any settings in postfix or dovecot.
What hasn’t worked
-Send a test email to support@mydomain.com (nothing in maildir).
-Send a test email to root@mydomain.com (nothing in maildir).
-Send a test email to support@server.mydomain.com (bounced back).
-I successfully added “support@mydomain.com” as a POP3 in gmail, but it gave me an error when it tried to fetch.
-telnet to port 25 yielded connection refused.
Outgoing mail sent from CLI works, but comes from “support@server.mydomain.com”. Netstat shows dovecot listening on all relevant ports. I don’t see anything in maillog regarding the failed incoming emails.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.
