You can do this with either telnet or netcat for pop3/smtp/imap protocol and see if the server answer to the connection and with openssl s_client for pop3s/imaps connection. HTH. Xavier hm actually I should get something like that: # telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail.domain.com ESMTP Postfix EHLO domain.com 250-mail.domain.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 1024 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN 250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN 250-XVERP 250 8BITMIME ^] telnet quit but I get this: telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. Maybe you could check in or post your postfix logs (/var/log/mail.* or /var/log/messages), or adding -d argument to smtpd command in /etc/postfix/master.cf, reload postfix with postfix reload, retry telnet and check (or post) the logs again. :s Thanks Laurent

Try this simple python script to check smtp capability of your server: http://fraggod.net/svc/dumpz/d7936/ Just save it into some file like smtp_test.py, replace domain with address of your server and use python smtp_test.py to launch it. It should show you whole protocol exchange between client and server, along with ocurred errors, if any.

[gentoo-user] Postfix, courier-imap: checks if working
Hi, I'm following this how to: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/virt-mail-howto.xml after configuring courier-imap they say: Start up your favorite mail client and verify that all connections you've started work for receiving and sending mail. Of course, you won't be able to log on to any of the services because authentication hasn't been configured yet, but it is wise to check if the connections themselves work or not. I'm using mutt, saying there's no mailbox. Creating mailbox is done later in the how to. What do they mean, how can I test if smtpd and pop3d work fine ? Thanks Laurent
