Connecting to my email server..

[Steve Peace\(Internal\)]

First off, let me thank everyone in this mailing list for assiting me in setting up my qmail server.  Within about 4 weeks, I now have a functioning server that will send and receive email from the internet and internally.  A special koodoos to Dave Sill for writing LWQ.  Your Document was a huge amount of help.  I now have a server running on RedHat 6.1 with Qmail 1.03.  I seem to be having one problem.  My server sits behind a NAT firewall.  I have 2 NICs in my server, one with an internal non routeable adrress, and another with a real ip address that my new ISP has given to me.  I contacted my former/other provider that is hosting our website and also registered our domain, to get the MX records changed to point to my new mail server.  This has been done as far as I can tell.  when I do a nslookup on mail.foobar.com I get back the correct address.  Also I can receive email from the outside world.  My problem lies with attaching to mail.foobar.com.  When I am behind the firewall I can attach to mail.int.foobar.com and everything is working, but when I try to attach to mail.foobar.com, I time out.  Listed below is the output of qmail-showctl.  It all seems to be OK when I look at it, but I'm just a newbie.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. qmail home directory: /var/qmail. user-ext delimiter: -. paternalism (in decimal): 2. silent concurrency limit: 120. subdirectory split: 23. user ids: 501, 502, 503, 0, 504, 505, 506, 507. group ids: 501, 502. badmailfrom: bouncefrom: (Default.)
