First thing, it's not urgent for LQ at all, so please do not demand any urgency, but use some appropriate subject line so more volunteer can visit your question and provide solutions.

Also explain your problem little more, which mail client you're using and how/where did you check smtp port no.? Is everything ok on firewall. Are mail services running ok. Are you getting any error(s)....

Posting your email out in the open like that is not a very good idea. You will start getting spam email like there is no tomorrow.

Good luck to you

Not recieving mails (Plesk)

Hi guys ........

Thanks for the advice, as I'm not much familiar with the things around here. But still can you guys help me with fixing the issue. I am using Qmail, when I try to telnet to my smtp port via the terminal I am not getting any results and I saw my smtp service is not running in Plesk. But I am able to send mails.



Thanks & Regards,
Aby Antony

Better show us the commands i.e. your work done on terminals.
