[spyda46]

Hi guys,

I ve been following this howto but when i come to test SMTP i have a problem, could anyone help?

The problem is that when i run ehlo localhost i only get

250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
250-VRFY
250-ETRN
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-8BITMIME
250 DSN

the howto says "If you see the lines 250-STARTTLS and 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN everything is fine"

I dont see them :-( - could anyone tell me why, i have followed the howto step by step so far, Thanks

This is the mail system at host domain.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the attached returned message.

The mail system

<testuser@domain.net>: unknown user: "testuser"

-----------------------------------------------------

I ve created the testuser in the users table as - testuser@domain.net -

Any ideas ? - Thanks

Ok I am nearly there - please can someone advise on this last step -

Maillog shows-

May 21 14:58:57 mail1 postfix/virtual[31765]: E1A0117B806A: to=<testuser@domain.com>, relay=virtual, delay=0.35, delays=0.32/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=4.2.0, status=deferred (maildir delivery failed: create maildir file /home/vmail/domain.com/testuser/tmp/1242914337.P31765.mail1.domain.com: Permission denied)

i have chown 777 -R on /home/vmail/ - no such luck - can someone point me in the right direction ?
