OK, I apologize for any obvious mistakes in advance since I'm kind of new to the whole thing with Linux, my own server and so on...
I've managed to install Debian with LAMP (latest stable on all of them) and I've set up so I can have different virtual domains to different directories the webserver part isn't really at a problem, it's when I'm trying to install Postfix I run into problems. I've followed the -Virtual Users And Domains... how-to and gotten to part 10 (I haven't gotten any errors in previous tests so far) where I'm supposed to test the mailserver by connecting to it with the commandline telnet localhost 25 when I get the following response -
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
I check my mail log which says
Feb 14 18:01:42 localhost courierpop3login: Connection, ip=[::ffff:81.170.129.165]
Feb 14 18:01:47 localhost courierpop3login: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:81.170.129.165]

when I do netstat -tap I get the following
