Mail not working

[Roadracer]

Not sure what is happening. Any help would be appriciated. I have installed phpBB2 on my site and just to test the email system, I tried to send something via the website. I didn't get any mail. Here is some of the maillog.

Not sure if its the server or my error in setting up phpBB. Sorry if this turns out to my my error in setting up phpBB.

Just added the webmail pkg. to test that, install worked, but can't log into it.

has it been this message:

there seems to be a problem with the domain of your server, maybe the dns-settings were recently changed. perhaps the mailserver where your email went to could not look up the domain and therefore didn't accept the mail ?

but I am only a little noob, falko or till might know more about this case

[till]

I gues server.roadracers.org is the hostname of your ISPConfig server? ZyanKLee is right, the domain server.roadracers.org does not exits in DNS. Please create an A or CName record for server.roadracers.org in the authoritive nameserver for the domain roadracers.org pointing to your server.

[Roadracer]

Is there a way to change the mail to point to another server? I haven't moved roadracers.org onto the server until I know everything works. I do have defendersguild.org running on the server and all the DNS is pointing to the right spot.

Otherwise I will rebuild the server again with the right information.

[till]

You dont have to rebuild the server. Just set the hostname of the server to the other domain. Which linux distribution do you use?

[Roadracer]

Fedora Core 4

[falko]

I suggest that you either create an A record for server.roadracers.org pointing to your server or replace server.roadracers.org with server.defendersguild.org (and create an A record for it). You 'd then have to replace server.roadracers.org in /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname (

echo server.defendersguild.org > /etc/hostname
/bin/hostname -F /etc/hostname

), /etc/postfix/main.cf (restart Postfix afterwards), maybe your Apache configuration (restart Apache afterwards), etc.

Thanks Till and Falko for helping me with this. It looks like somethings are working now but I have not gotten any emails. The first email looks like it got bounced for a IP on a banned list, the second I am not sure why I didn't get the mail. Here is the log now, it will make more sense to you.

I also noted this in the /etc/postfix/virtusertable

webmaster@www.defendersguild.org web2_webmaster
web2_webmaster@www.defendersguild.org web2_webmaster
@www.defendersguild.org web2_webmaster
webmaster@defendersguild web2_webmaster
web2_webmaster@defendersguild web2_webmaster
@defendersguild web2_webmaster

.org is missing on some of the entries, is this correct or a mistake?

Please check the Co-Domain of the website www.defendersguild.org if the .org ending is missing.
