Topic: mail server not receiving

[Grant Oswald]

Hello,
I've not long upgraded to 5.6 from 5.5 . It now seems that we arn't receiving any mail. Although we can send. Also we can receive internally. I've tried starting qmail, using open port etc.
I can ping our mail server from an external location. We are using a Dynalink ADSL modem/router going straight to the sme. A port scan tells me port 25 is in stealth. How ever the server-manger portscan tells me it is open.
I'm out of ideas

thanks

Hello,
I've tried doing a fresh install and it still isn't working?

help! I've read the board in relation to port 25 but to no help. Its been working fine for 12 months now so I don't see how the firewall/router has anyhting to do with it. Particularly since this is happening since the 5.6 update

Hi for some reason the eepro100 network card wasn't talking to the router properly. I replaced it with a realtek 8139 and its all good now. Is their something with the 5.6 and this card?

thanks
