RE: Testing sending/receving mail in qmail (cannot establish smtp connection)

[Ihnen, David]

More problems than that.   You didn't get a 220 status banner/capabilities line when you telnetted to the smtp port.   Something is definitely wrong.   And whats with the > prompts?  Smtpd doesn't generate them.   I don't think you're connected to qmail-smtpd.    May I suggest using a cut-and-paste from the telnet window, if you didn't?   'cause if you did, that doesn't look like an smtp server.   David   -----Original Message----- From: Wagner R.

It cannot SEND mail. I've tried to send an e-mail to an address and it says cannot_establish_SMTP_connection.   2. The Telnet test described in TEST.receive doesn't work, because here is what happens (it's not copy and paste, so some words might be wrong:)   # telnet 127.0.0.1 25 Connected to Telnet > HELO DUDE > ??? ok > MAIL [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ??? Comand unrecognized > MAIL FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ??? Comand unrecognized > MAIL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > ??? Comand unrecognized   and so on. So, it says Command unrecognized.   If this doesn't help, I will try to transcribe every word in the telnet.   Just for information: running ./config didn't work, because I don't have a domain name assigned to my IP number. So I used ./config-fast 192.168.1.20  . Will this work?   Thank you   Wagner R. Landgraf Automa Consultoria & Inform�tica Ltda.

I followed TEST.deliver doc and when I try to do local-remote connection qmail says that cannot_establish_connections_to_SMTP_server (#4.4.1) Can someone help me? I also try to follow TEST.receive and when I do telnet 127.0.0.1 25 it doesn't recognized commands MAIL and RCPT. I've followed the doc (HELO DUDE, then MAIL me@domain ) but it says the MAIL is a "command unrecognized".  I've also tried MAIL FROM, and it doesn't work. Can someone tell me what is wrong? Thank you all   P.S.: I use Linux Debian, and I still don't have a domain. I'm trying to install it using IP addresses ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), then after everything is fine I'll move the domain.
