Mail not reaching my local Server! Queued in system....

[Dimitriy]

Setup:
Ubuntu 6.06 (using perfect installation guide)
Network: Single server single IP single site for the moment (IP Dedicated)
ISPConfig 2.23
-------------------------------
Ok I can:

> Send mail through both webmail (Roundcube/UM) and client (Mozilla Thunderbird using TLS).

I CANT:

> Retrieve mail using client (Thunderbird)
> Recieve mail to my inbox (but it goes into the queue...see below)

When I run the "postqueue -p" command I get the following printout...

-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------

My local server is called "antec.qualitysiding.net" and my public domain is qualitysiding.net. My DNS is managed through www.poweryourname.com (A service similar to Godaddy) and it looks picture attached.

So what am I doing wrong here? I can send mail through Thunderbird and webmail using my public name (itsupport@qualitysiding.net) and it works completely fine.

ALSO, I use Gmail to test and whenever I respond to a message it doesnt give me an error. I assume this is because the mail is recieved at my end (qualitysiding.net -->> antec.qualitysiding.net) and stores it in a temporary location since it cant resolve the name?

Anybody got a hint on how to make say people who got mail.qualitysiding.net will take them to my webmail form (mail.qualitysiding.net -->> https://qualitysiding.net:81/roundcube)?

Thanks,
Dimitriy

DNS config if you cant get it:

[Dimitriy]

Also results of hostname and "hostname -f" gives me the following:

antec -- just simple hostname

localhost.localdomain -- thats for "hostname -f"

[Dimitriy]

Should be simple enough.... No takers?

antec.qualitysiding.net doesn't exist. Please create an A record for it.

I created an A record for "antec.qualitysiding.net" to my IP: 71.231.xxx.xxx. But I have only one computer on this end. Do I have to set something in ISP config??

PS: I want email to come xuser@qualitysiding.net not xuser@antec.qualitysiding.net

[Dimitriy]

Ok got something here I think. The only place that postfix references the host name is in /etc/postfix/main.cf.

/etc/postfix/main.cf

...
myhostname = antec.qualitysiding.net
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
#mydestination = antec.qualitysiding.net, localhost.qualitysiding.net, , localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
inet_interfaces = all
inet_protocols = all
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_tls_auth_only = no
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes
smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem
smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom

virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtusertable

mydestination = /etc/postfix/local-host-names

So what should change?

[falko]

Just create an A record for antec.qualitysiding.net, that should work. I didn't see it in the dig output yet, but it might take some time until it appears.

[Dimitriy]

This was done 24 hours ago. Should be working....

Results of "postqueue -p"

Does this make this a internal error then??

Get me a right answer and it works and you get 15 bucks in your paypal.

The ?/Problem: Make mail system work normally (eg. recieve and send mail.). Must be able to login as through POP and use a simple client aka Mozilla Thunderbird.

Its pretty simple but I am not a networking pro or even a novice.....
