Unhappy mail server help on opensuse 10.3


I have installed opensuse 10.3 and have everything up and running so far but am running into problems with e-mail server. Installed squirrelmail, as well as PhpBB. I was able to somehow set up 1 account in postfix that can receive mail, but can not get another account set up correctly. When trying to send mail out it acts as if it sends but the reciever never gets it, and this is within both squirrel mail and PhpBB. I can telnet and connect to an outside address, I also found one error that I noticed right away in logs and fixed as it was easy to catch a misnamed file in postfix. I think I have prob. done more dammage than good on trying to set this up so far. Can someone please help me to get all of my mail funtions up and going correctly. It would prob. be beter for walking me through to deleting all out and install and start fresh so I may be able to learn a little more. Sry I am still new with linux. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Try sending a mail, then post the tail of your maillog. Not sure what the log is called on Suse, but on CentOS I'd use

tail /var/log/maillog

This gives the last 10 lines of the log. If that doesn't catch all the error, try tail -15, tail -20, etc.

Post your results here.
