Dear Sirs:
I installed a mail sever with postfix+courier-imap+cyrus-sasl+mysql+php.
Everything is ok but no mail out of LAN can be received and the message is as following:
Out: 220 mail.xxxxxxxxxx.com ESMTP Postfix
In: HELO web15607.mail.cnb.yahoo.com
Out: 250 mail.xxxxxxxxxx.com
In: MAIL FROM:<xxxxxxxxx@yahoo.com>
Out: 250 Ok
In: RCPT TO:<xxxxxxx@mail.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com>
Out: 451 Server configuration error
In: QUIT
Out: 221 Bye
So, what shall I do?
Thnaks in advance!

| Check your Postfix logs. It should tell you what part of the config is choking it. |

Logging is generally done in files contained in /var/log/. Standard would be for mail to be logged in /var/log/maillog. This being Gentoo it would depend how you set up the logging (syslog). If you find few logs in there have a look for /var/log/messages - you may have one big log with everything. Run ls -lrt in there to see which log was updated last (will be the one at the bottom after that command).
To check a log as it happens type
tail -f -n 200 /var/log/maillog
It will show you the last 200 lines of the file and keep following the file as more entries appear. |

Thanks!
In /var/log/message, I fund following word dated today:
Login, user=xxxx, ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1], header=0, body=0, time=0
Failed to create cache file:maildirmatch
Error: Import/output error
I have double checked my two server (one at home, another at my office. The one in office is health for mail server. But the one in home is not.)
all the attributions are equal for .maildir and .maildir-sent belong to root and normal user
Thanks so much again!
