Can't download via dovecot
I've setup a postfix/dovecot mail server including a proper SSL. I've setup the account within gmail and it authenticates properly.
From within gmail I can send FROM server address TO gmail address and receive properly. If I send FROM gmail TO server address I receive the email on the server end, but any updates on the gmail end find no server emails. I'm stumped and google hasn't been helpful with this weird issue. |
Hi,
>>I've setup a postfix/dovecot mail server including a proper SSL. I've setup the account within gmail and it authenticates properly. OK >> From within gmail I can send FROM server address TO gmail address and receive properly. OK >>If I send FROM gmail TO server address I receive the email on the server end, OK >>but any updates on the gmail end find no server emails. This sentence is not clear unfortunately. LQ forum users wil be able to help you if you can provide a detailed descrpition of the issue with exact configurations you used in gmail so that we could visualize your situation. -- sherin |
I've followed the Ubuntu postfix/dovecot (Maildir) setup verbatim:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dovecot What I was trying to express is that postfix is working since I can send via Gmail through my server address. However when I try to retrieve mail from my server address via Gmail no emails are found. However when I check locally on the server the emails are there. I was noting the SSL setup worked since Gmail now has strict SSL enforcement for third party addresses. I'm new to this whole process so from what I gather I think this means my postfix is working and my dovecot is setup incorrectly. I don't want to post the whole conf, so if there's a problematic section I should post please let me know. |
Well I'm a big dumb animal. Turns out everything was correct, Gmail just outsmarted me and doesn't retrieve emails it originated. I received an email from another user without issue. I then checked with another account and it worked perfectly.
