Unable to login to email

I was teaching a guy to build a howtoforge perfect server setup using the debian squeeze with ISPconfig 3 and we've hit a snag. It appears as though everything is working, however, I'm unable to authenticate against the email server. I have included the main.cf for reference. Any questions, just let me know and thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Cheers!

Which errors do you get in the mail.log?

 

In mail log there is the following;

Code:

Apr 26 17:05:02 propertyboss postfix/master[9007]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 9046 exit status 1
Apr 26 17:05:02 propertyboss postfix/master[9007]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

Apr 26 17:05:38 propertyboss imapd: Disconnected, ip=[::ffff:192.168.100.44], time=5

There are no messages in the mail.err and pretty much the same thing in mail.info that is above.

At first I found in the mail.err log that my helper had not installed postfix-mysql where I did. After that nothing else would happen other than what you see above.

Thanks,
Ken
