 |

Hi!
I have been trying to setup a mail server for a while, for now it's only sending mail, but not correctly.
When I send mail to some other email server I recieve mail from 'user@' (no domain) and when send back a mail - mail simply doesn't come.
First it took me a lot of time to figure out why it wasn't sending any mail at all, but that was because of my ISP and needed to add relayhost.

This my main.cf!
What I'm trying to do is make a simple mail server that will store mail in /home/user/.maildir and using MUTT could send a mail back.
I have tried many tutorials and many mail servers, postfix is the only one who was able to send mail, even changed the hostname of gentoo box to mail.domain.com, so maybe that could help, but guess not.
And should mail sending take over 10minutes, because I nevar had a mail that would have came fast?

| If you don't like the From: address then configure your mail client correctly. |

Well... that would be the least problem, but look at this, just came out in log:
| Code: | Apr 8 19:00:51 mail postfix/smtp[11027]: connect to smtp.isp.com[ip....]:25: Connection timed out
Apr 8 19:00:53 mail postfix/qmgr[10975]: 0465F354167: removed
Apr 8 19:00:53 mail postfix/smtp[11027]: 0465F354167: to=<me@gmail.com>, relay=smtp.isp.com[ip....]:25, delay=32, delays=0.14/0/30/2.1, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 0EC2D90521) |
I'm not sure if those hostname and hosts and dns for my domain are configured right!

If you are just sending mail via ISP's servers then none of that matters.
Looks like the connection to your ISP's mailserver timed out then worked. |

Log file doesn't give anything about recieving...
This could be because domain name?
And I'm not sure about aliases either, not less then hostname and hosts!
Got the domain name in the from name... but still can't recieve mail!
