What have I made wrong, when the virutal host mailserver don´t work?
I have made a virtual host mreimers.se, and the mail server are mail.mreimers.se, but i recive a error in my mailklient program (Outlook) that say me that, this mailserver don´t exist.
We couldn’t pick up any mail.
Hey Lars,
Check to be sure Dovecot is running:
/etc/init.d/dovecot status
If not, start it:
/etc/init.d/dovecot start
Check your firewall settings to be sure you aren’t blocking POP3/IMAP ports.
iptables -L -v
Check the maillog for any errors that might be relevant:
tail -f /var/log/maillog
Finally, be sure DNS is configured correctly:
host mail.mreimers.se
Now that I think of it, it looks like this last one is probably where the problem lies. Dig into your DNS configuration to be sure you have accurate glue records at your registrar and correct configuration on your server. We can help figure out what you need to do to correct things, once we figure out what might be wrong with some specificity.
I start to asnwer to the last qustion first, ant hist come up both from mreimers.se and from our server:
Host mail.mreimers.se not found: 3 (NXDOMAIN)
???
Any solutions?
Happy New Year!!
