smtp error
« on: October 25, 2016, 11:37:11 AM »
hi

After the updating of CWP to 0.9.8.70 version, I have a problem in connecting by Outlook. It could be connected to POP3 but in the stage of send test mail, it gives the error (Send test email message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) email server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).)

Rather I have tested the port 25 firewall and that was open, but I could not connect by telnet, the error is about the connection time out.
Please give a guidnece, if possible.

best regards.

do your server really allowed mail through 25 ? if connection is closed through telnet probably port 25 is closed

Yes I am sure, I have tested this port from ping.eu and I got it is open.

config CSF inculudes:

Code: [Select]
# Allow incoming TCP ports
TCP_IN = "20,21,3031,25,53,80,110,143,443,465,587,993,995,2030,2031"

# Allow outgoing TCP ports
TCP_OUT = "20,21,3031,25,53,80,110,113,443,2030,2031,587,993,995"

and:

Code: [Select]
netstat -tulpn

tail -f /var/log/maillog includes only this errors:

Code: [Select]
Oct 26 14:40:21 srv1 postfix/smtpd[16415]: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/sender_whitelist.db: No such file or directory
Oct 26 14:40:22 srv1 postfix/master[16238]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 16415 exit status 1
Oct 26 14:40:22 srv1 postfix/master[16238]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

Plz pay attention to the point that the Postfix is working correctly, because I have received forwarded root emails.

simply comment out this line in /etc/postfix/main.cf

Code: [Select]
check_client_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_whitelist

or, create /etc/postfix/sender_whitelist file, and run postmap

Code: [Select]
touch /etc/postfix/sender_whitelist
postmap hash:/etc/postfix/sender_whitelist

Btw, when you telnet port 25 your server from ping.eu, that will only cek incoming port25.
to check outgoing, telnet other server from yours

After checking different sides, CWP had no problems, the ISP Port 25 had closed and I substitute Port 587 instead, eventually the problem was solved.
