user@yahoo.com got the email
user@gmail.com did not get it

in my server we are using postfix.

how can I config the email to resive email?

thanks for your work and you time

Type in the mail server: tail -f /var/log/mail.log and than try to send a email to gmail adress. When you do that copy the output that shows up in terminal windows from the command that you typed in and paste it here.

Something more, I can't get e-mail in come, just the ones from the server (notifications)

Thank you.

In most cases gmail is rejecting mail is because bad email configuration or dns configuration.

Post the output of following commands:

hostname
hostname -f
cat /etc/mailname

You can try to check if your IP or MX is open relay:

Thank for your time and help.

server:~# hostname
server
server:~# hostname -f
server.example.com
server:~# cat /etc/mailname
server.example.com

This is it.

In the hosting control panel:

Email

server Domain

server.example.com example.com



But in the DNS Zone I don"t have nothing declared; I mean, no records for this domain.

Where is my mistake? thank you, I appreciate you help.

First check out this URL: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...-ispconfig3-p3

Setup your hostnames like in the guide in the url. You need to use FQDN (Fully qualified domain name) for email and you need to setup MX record in DNS that points to your IP of ISPConfig server.

ok. so I have a difference in the eth0 in my server is dhcp

and in the records of the DNS is hostname the domain name??

MX record

hostname:
example.com

emailserver hostname:
server.example.com

is that right??

thank yuo very mush

Are we talking about FQDN (Fully qualified domain name) here or do you use local test domain ?

Sorry.
I just want be able to create an e-mail for my cliente, where he can sent and resive e-mails to any body.
thank you

Then just create an email account in ispconfig. Your client can send and receive emails to anybody with this account, he just have to enable smtp authentication in his email client.
