I also check the SMTP and POP3 port, and both are currently listening on port 25 and 110. Is there another process I didn't do?

Make sure your sendmail server is running and working properly

It is very easy to configure postfix server for your server i am using RedHat 5.0.

#yum install postfix*

#vim /etc/postfix/main.cf

line no. 77 mydomain = san.com
93 myorigin = $mydomain -----------uncomment this line
69 myhostname = pc1.san.com
115 mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
(uncomment this line if it is commented)
225 mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24 (define your network here)
107 inet_interfaces = all (uncomment this line)

:wq! save and exit now

#yum install system-switch-mail*
#system-switch-mail
and select MTA agent Postfix and ok

#service postfix start

Now u can send mail using postfix server by sandeeprhce5

Did you realize this thread was nearly 6 years old?

I'll report it for closure

sandeeprhce5, thanks for your post. Unfortunately this is a very old thread, so it maybe more helpful to focus on more recent threads. Thanks.
