mail server ubuntu - Cant send emails

Post by jorgeevil8 »

Good afternoon . I have a problem with the mail server installed on their VPS . This is the page of the tutorial to install the mail server in ubuntu 14.04:

http://www.krizna.com/ubuntu/setup-mail ... ntu-14-04/

I followed this tutorial and I've installed it in other vps and it worked without any problem . I could send and receive emails.

I set the MX record correctly so I can RECEIVE emails are either google , hotmail and Yahho .

The problem that I have in their vps is that mail is not sent.

this is the mail.log

I see that this domain currently resolves to an unmanaged VDS here at NFO.

Keep in mind, if you are a new customer and this is a new server, port 25 is blocked for the two weeks of creation due to spam. You may be able to have it lifted early if you file a ticket.

See here: viewtopic.php?f=47&t=4579

The best thing you can do is wait it out, or see if you can get it lifted early by filing a support ticket.
As I had said above, this page shows you more detailed info: viewtopic.php?f=47&t=4579

You could also take advantage of the perfectly performing web hosting packages that NFO offers (with mail and the usual) that start at only $2.99, free with a game server (not a VDS).

thy answered this:

Two weeks have already passed, the port was automatically unblocked already, there is no need to wait as the port is not blocked any longer

Reading through these errors, it looks like the NFO IP may have been used to send out too many e-mails through googles SMTP servers, whether by you or the previous client. It doesn't seem to be blacklisted, but it is on a timeout.

I'd suggest trying a different IP. If you cannot afford another IP address, simply move your server to another location, or even back and forth in hopes to obtain a new one in the same location. Server files will be retained.

That type of error message from Google is always very temporary if you clear up the root of the problem, so it wouldn't be due to a previous customer. Definitely read Google's link.
