Help Installing Postfix

[FreeBullets]

I need some help installing Postfix on the latest Ubuntu. First off, here are my DNS records from freedns.afraid.org just in case i got anything wrong:

localserver.mooo.com	A	71.14.99.36
localserver.mooo.com	MX	10:localserver

When I try to telnet into it, I get this:

jesse@ubuntu:~$ telnet localhost pop3
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Hello there.
user admin
+OK Password required.
pass *****
+ERR Temporary problem, please try again later
Connection closed by foreign host.

Help

POP3 has nothing to do with Postfix. What'S your POP3 daemon?
Any errors in your logs?

I think it's courier. Sorry, I'm pretty new to linux. Mail logs are at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...34#post5073220.

What's in /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_forwardings.cf?

I fixed that file. Here's what's happening now:

POP3
Still getting a temporary problem error.

 Account: 'localserver.mooo.com', Server: 'localserver.mooo.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Temporary problem, please try again later', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

SMTP
This error when I send mail to someone in the network:

The rejected e-mail address was 'jesse@localserver.mooo.com'. Subject 'hee', Account: 'localserver.mooo.com', Server: 'localserver.mooo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '451 4.3.0 <jesse@localserver.mooo.com>: Temporary lookup failure', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 451, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

And a relay access denied error when i send a message to someone outside the network.

Can you post the exact error messages from your mail log?
What's in /etc/resolv.conf?

Some error messages that keep popping up that I haven't already fixed are:

May 31 19:31:17 ubuntu postfix/master[5752]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/cleanup: bad command startup -- throttling

What's in your /etc/postfix/main.cf?

Can you add other name servers to /etc/resolv.conf, e.g. the ones of your ISP?
