Problems receiving email via postfix
 
I have been reading and Im having problems finding out why Im not receiving email. I can send without problems, telnet to port 25, but no luck when receiving.

Can you please help point me into the right direction?

Is this a mail account from your ISP?

darth thanks for the reply but on a whim I decided to try to send mail to username@localhost.domain.com and it worked... I think I just need some changes in my postfix config file now.

Thank you
The GNUbie

You will need to supply some error logs or postfix configuration information for anybody to be able to help you....

ryedunn, you asked for help and then didn't answer my question. For people to help you, you need to state *exactly* what you are trying to do.

You don't receive mail on port 25. That is the port to send mail. If you recieve mail using the pop3 protocol that is on port 110. You might check out fetchmail.
