I don't have much experience on linux.
I needed to install a mail server on my ubuntu server running apache2
virtual hosts. I had to be quick so I tried this
http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ tutorial.
Skipped firewall; installed postfix and courier-imap. (added pop3) But since
I tried to do all as quick as possible, and since I have a very low
experience, I messed up somewhere.
I now am able to log-in and recieve through imap or pop3. Also able to send
mails to accounts of my domain.
But when I try to send a mail to remote (gmail, yahoo, example.com etc.) I
get Relay Access Denied. Many of googleing led me to
"smtpd_recipient_restrictions" I throubled much but could not solve it. And
so confused.
My goal is to have a mail server that:
- restrict users to use TSL for all (POP3/IMAP/SMTP).
- make it as hard as possible for spammers to target my domains.
But now I have a headache for more than 3 days.
Im adding the last shapes of my cf's.
Could you tell me what am I doing wrong?
