Topic: SME 6.0.1-01 email not received

[Wimmy]

Hi,
I have problem receiving email on my SME 6.0.1-01 (fresh install). I'm able to send email without problem.

If I receive an email for user@mydomain.com, the smtpfront-qmail log wrote:

"Sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts."

I'm able to send email for local user.

My installation are:
SME version: SME 6.0.1-01
Langage: French,cf keyboard.
Server/gateway installation with 2 networks cards.
Router Bewan LB2104P for internet connexion with TCP port 25 open.

What's the problem? Do I have forget to activate a protocol?

Thanks for your help.

is your domain (mydomain.com)defined as primary or virtual domain on your server?

[Wimmy]

Hi Boris,
mydomain.com is my primary domain. I don't have another domain configured in the server.

If I put in the /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts:
.com
.org
.net

I receive email on the domain.com, domain.org and domain.net but it's not secured (relay open) and suspicious hacking arrived (it's not recommended).

With SME 5.5 (I use it actually) I don't have problem with it.

Thanks for your help! ;)

It should just work in the default install then. You shouldn't have to do rpchost configuration.
What are your settings in the e-mails menu of server-manager?

Hi Boris,
my email configuration on Email Menu is:
General->Reception mail = Standard (SMTP)
General->Pop/IMAP services = local network mode
General->Webmail services = HTTPS only activated
Delegated server->Internal mail server='blank'
Delegated server->ISP mail server='blank'
ETRN/Multipoint->Secondary mail server='blank'

The others configurations are by default.

Excuse-me if these configurations is not identical because my installation is in French mode well the traduction are perhaps not identical.

P.S.: I have try to reinstall SME 6.0.1-01 in Server mode only and I have the same problem. I have try to put the RBLList services (howto RayMitchell) and ClamAv (with howto of pagefault.org) and I have the same problem. I'm able to send mail local account and ClamAv scans mails without problem and the reception is functional.

Thanks again! ;)

Is port 25 forwarded from the router to SME box and MX record for your domain created on the public DNS server?
Could this be the case then ISP is blocking incoming SMTP (port 25)?

[Wimmy]

Hi Boris!
My MX record and domain are ok (with Gandi.net).

On router (Bewan Lanbooster 2104P), I have open these TCP ports NAT: 22, 25, 80, 443.

I tell you that I don't have problem to receive public email with my SME 5.5.

When SME 6 receive an email, the server receive it but smtpfront-qmail block it. This is my smtpfront-qmail log:

I have try another public account via my ISP (citenet.net) and it's the same problem...

Thanks again!
