dovecot/postfix FEDORA 4 CORE

[trinimoses]

Ok.. I have dovecot(0.99x) and postfix and squirrel mail installed via yum..(fedora4)

Now firstkly i have dovecot up and running, but i cant set the "#log_path = " because every time i do.. dovecot wouldnt start up.

Secondly.. my client machines can connect to there imap account.. but they cant send any email to any other accounts on the local network.. (example andreb@itctt.net cant send to aramoutar@itctt.net).. it gives me this error "sending report error (0x80042109): Outlook is unable to connect to your smtp server email server.."

I dont know what else to do... going crazy trying to figure that out..

Thanks in advance

Are you sure Postfix is running?

Run nmap localhost to see if the appropriate ports are open. I'll assume 25 and 143.

I followed that how to with an exception :

http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/...ovecot+postfix

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_sasl_authenticated,
check_relay_domains

where i changed the smtpd to smtp ..
and it works like a charm
