HELO Then type help and try and send an email the fun way -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Jeff Hutchinson Sent: Monday, 3 February 2003 5:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SLUG] Email problem... I have setup an email server which stands behind a firewall. Internally we are able to sent and receive email. I fact we can send email anywhere. The problem lies with the incoming email --- none. I have checked the following, 1. Allowed port 110/tcp and 25/tcp through the firewall. From outside the firewall you can telnet to the server and it responds. 2. I'm fairly sure DNS is working but I have the FEATURE( accept_ unresolved_domains) turned on ( not my favorite option ). I have attached part of the maillog. The system is Redhat 8. Its probably something stupid I am doing. Any help appreciated, Jeff -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
