E-mail send and recieve problem

I have installed ISPConfig on my server and add a website to it. Also have I add a e-mail address to that website. Now I have try to send a e-mail from my e-mail address (of my internet provider) to my new e-mail address from the website. Then I get the following error:

Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied

I have read the ather posts about this topic but they don't answer my question.

I have open my the ports in my firewall and router that Postfix nead.

When I enter:

Code:

ehlo localhost

in telnet I get the following result:

Code:

250-server1.xxxxx.com

250-PIPELINING

250-SIZE 10240000

250-VRFY

250-ETRN

250-STARTTLS

250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN

250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN

250 8BITMIME

and I compleetly follow this tutorial:

http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_fedora_core_4

so I realy don't now what is wrong.

Is maildir checked in management>server>settings?

Did you send a test email first to create the mail box?

The option mail dir in management>server>settings was not checked. I have now checked it. But I have probblems loging in to the web interface to send a test mail. How do I log in here, by that I mean which username and password must I use. Must I type in by e-mail the e-mail address of the user of the username?

Have you installed webmail?

Can you send an email from a foreign server?

Is the recipient address domain in /etc/postfix/local-host-names?
Does your mail actually arrive on your ISPConfig machine, or is it sent to another system because of some DNS misconfiguration? Have a look into your maillog (under /var/log) to see if the mail is at least arriving on your system.

You can run

Code:

tail -f /var/log/[your_maillog_file]

to watch real-time what happens when you try to send a mail to your ISPConfig system.

For example you send an email to thebigfing@example.com. Then example.com has to be in /etc/postfix/local-host-names.
