Mail server and DNS configuration

I have an XServe G4 running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Server, and I have successfully configured two domains that I purchased from GoDaddy as websites on this XServe. It's behind an Airport Extreme, and I have forwarded a bunch of ports in order to enable FTP, SSH, Web, remote Server Administration, webmail, and I have also forwarded the IMAP and SMTP ports. All of these services work except for email, so I am wondering if there is any special DNS settings that I need to configure in the GoDaddy total dns configuration page. I have the MX record pointed directly to my IP, just like the A record. I also have mail.mydomain.com pointed to the A record's IP (maybe I described that poorly, but I hope it gets the point across). I am able to log into webmail and send email out to other people, but when I try replying back to the email which I sent from webmail, I get a bounced message. I also cannot configure a Mail client, but I think I need to get the accounts at least working first. Can someone provide a list of DNS requirements or server configuration requirements for me to check off in order to make this happen? Does anyone know of any great resources to learn this kind of stuff? I'm kinda new to the server thing.
Thanks!
Paul

  • Mail Server and SMTP Configuration (Leopard Server)

    Hello,
    Our setup: Mac OS X SERVER 5.2 - LEOPARD SERVER
    PowerPC G5
    Orange Internet connection via a router / DHCP
    We try to find such assistance in configuring your Mac book
    OS Server at your service.
    We set our server with a local area "domaine.intranet"
    We created users with the interface, and have an address
    "[email protected]."
    Our messaging system works internally with the client MAIL.
    We also have an Internet domain "domaine.fr", this area is hosted
    In online.net.
    We have personal e-mail addresses such as "[email protected]" always
    Hosted by online.
    We can check our e-mails via the client MAIL by IMAP.
    However, we do not send emails to the outside world, and especially
    "Domaine.fr" or "[email protected]."
    In the console admin Server:
    -- LETTERS: we have turned the SMTP protocol allowing mail
    Entrant, authorizing "Relayer outgoing mail over the host:
    Smtp.orange.fr "
    At the tab relay, we leave the config classic 127.0.0.0 / 8
    And 192.168.1.0/24.
    In the history of mail, there are "postfix / postfix-7563]: fatal: the

  • Web host, mail server and FTP.

    Dear all:
    I have some questions and will try to make my post a short one (although the questions aren't exactly simple). I have the need to set up my own web server, e-mail server and FTP server. It is my understanding (and I remember setting another computer I had 2 or 3 years ago this way) that OS X can be used for this without the need to have OS X server installed. I don't need (at least not for the for the immediate future) to have a server for my own local network. Basically all I need is a single computer where (1) I can host multiple web sites, (2) I can host my own e-mail that will correspond in number to the number of web sites (domain names) being hosted and (3) I can set-up as a FTP server so that my clients can log on and download files.
    I have used VirtualHostX for virtual hosting as well as PureFTD Manager with good results in the past. I've also found both to be easy to use, with a good and intuitive GUI which is essential for someone with as little knowledge as I have of networking. My question now as to do with e-mail and how to set-up Mac OS X to work as an e-mail server.
    Are there any applications you would suggest that would be simple to use, have a simple and intuitive user interface and also provide mailing list services along with e-mail services that you would recommend ? I've looked at a few but most of the ones I have found seem to require command line input and this is something I am not comfortable with. I need an application with a simple interface and allows things to be set-up in a straight forward manner (and preferably free instead of paid).
    What would be your recommendations for this project ? Any recommendations, advice and suggestions you can offer will be very appreciated.
    Thank you in advance,
    Joseph

    Perhaps you should give people more time to answer.
    1. You do not need a DNS on your server, ask the ISP to set up the MX record as they set up the A record.
    2. Not really enough information in your setup to say either way, but as it takes seconds to do and you have everything else needed - set it up anyway.
    3. Domain name: mydomain.com, Host name depends what you call it. If you don't have a name why not mail.mydomain.com and make you mx record point to that name. Perhaps that is what your A record is already.

  • HT201320 What is incoming and outgoing mail server and server port number

    What is incoming and outgoing mail server and server port number

    See applenerd504 previous reply:
    These specifications that allow you to send and receive messages on your iPhone. If you are using iCloud Mail, Gmail, or another service listed in the selector in settings, they should be automatically configured. If not, you may need to look up certain numbers for your email service.
    Putting it in slightly different terms:
    If you are using a web-mail system like gmail (with a gmail email address) all the mail sending, receiving and management is done on Google servers. In these cases you will only need to have a working internet connection to be able to log in to the service to access its data. 
    Supplying mail sever names and port numbers should only be needed if you are using a traditional (non-web) email account where you are accessing the mail servers directly. This would be typical for a email account set up by someone like your ISP (Internet Service Provider), in these cases you will have to ask them for the appropriate settings.

    How do I set up a mail server and SMTP server to send messages to other mail servers at mavericks

    You need to get the settings for your email from your email provider and enter them in Internet Accounts (System Preferences). Many of the common systems are already available, all you need is a password and an email address to set them up.

    Since no one here has any idea about what type of mail your school offers...you don't mention what school...your question, as asked, can't be answered. What don't you contact your school's IT dept., or look online. Most schools have instructions on how to do so online.

  • Trying to add my thunderbird work email account to my new iphone, how do I find my "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" host names?

    Got a new Iphone 6 and I need to add my work thunderbird email account onto the phone. It is asking me for the host name of my incoming and outgoing mail server and I have no idea what this means- please help!

    First off there is no such thing as a Thunderbird email account. Email providers issue email accounts and Thunderbird is email client software and not a provider.
    You can look at the server settings in Thunderbird to see the settings it is using or you could get a list from your provider.
    In Thunderbird go to the menu bar and select Tools-Account Settings-Server Settings to see the Inbound settings and Tools-Server Settings-Outbging Server(SMTP) for Outbound settings.
    No menu bar with Tools showing? Press the alt key.

    You certainly can.
    Be aware that the emails you move to local storage ("on my Mac") will be the only copies that remain.

  • Newie Mail server and running other services

    We have a small office network of 6 macs that connect to a Panther server, this server provides DNS and file sharing and thats about it a Filemaker Sever and Retrospect Server. I doesn't suffer from heavy use
    I have been using a a separate mac to run Quickmail server 1 (os9) and I need to upgrade it as some of the mail protocols are out of date.
    We have a static IP address assigned to our mail gateway by our service provider.
    My question or advice
    Should I just start using OS X server to run mail services
    or
    Upgrade Quickmail and continue running it separately on a new mac mini (or similar)
    My concerns are at the moment any problem with email locally can be solved pretty much without effecting the other server or the network.
    Thanks

    The basic setup is prety simple...
    Replace following with your own equivalents...
    Domain name: woopee.com (the domain name after the "@" in your emails)
    Host name: mail.woopee.com (the hostname your MX record points to. Does not need to match server hostname. This will be the hostname mail server uses when communicating with other servers)
    Local Host Aliases: woopee.com (a list of the domains you want to accept mail for. Probably just same as Domain name?)
    Local network: 192.168.10.0/24 (LAN IP range for local users. Used to bypass authentication when they send mail out)
    Server Admin-> Mail-> General...
    Tick:Enable POP
    Tick:Enable IMAP
    Tick:Enable SMTP, Allow incoming mail, Enter Domain name & Host name (from above).
    Mail-> Relay
    Tick: Accept SMTP relays... Enter localhost IP: 127.0.0.1/32 and Local network (from above).
    Tick: Use these junk mail rejection servers. Add: zen.spamhaus.org
    Mail->Filters
    Tick: scan for junk mail. Minimum score: 5 (can be reduced later)
    Junk mail should be: Delivered (will just tag and forward to recipient)
    Tick: Attach subject tag: * Junkmail *
    Tick: Scan email for viruses
    Infected messages should be: Deleted
    Tick: update junk mail & virus database: 1 time per day
    Mail->Advanced->Security
    SMTP: none (this prevents smtp authentication from anyone outside your Local network)
    IMAP: Tick: Clear, Plain, Cram-md5 (or leave all unticked if only using pop accounts)
    POP: Tick: APOP
    Mail->Advanced->Hosting
    Local Host Aliases: Add: localhost & woopee.com (separate entries, see Local host aliases, above)
    That's it (I think ...although I cannot guarantee I have not missed something). There will be no problem setting this up and seeing it going whilst still using the existing mail server. Set up client accounts to send and receive from new server and you can send mail around internally to test. Last thing would be to change your firewall port-forwarding for SMTP from existing server to new one.
    Watch the mail.log in Console for any errors & do plenty tests.
    Ensure users have mail enabled in Workgroup Manager.
    There are plenty mods available beyond this. Have a good read through the mail services manual (I know its a bit confusing at times) and you should see where the above settings fit in.
    Lots of stuff on the forum here which you can search for. Spam filtering in particular can be made far more effective but requires editing of the underlying unix configuration files - again, plenty of previous discussions about that on forum. Meantime, the zen.spamhaus.org RBL will filter out a great many spammers.

  • Leopard Mail Server and DynDNS (Newbie)

    I don't have a static IP but have an account with DynDNS. I have AFP, Firewall, Web, and VPN enabled. All those services are working perfectly. I am now trying to setup mail.
    I have opened the required ports, enabled mail, and configured mail via the "Configure Mail Service" button in overview. POP and IMAP are enabled. SMTP is enabled to allow incoming Mail. Accept SMTP relay is checked to accepts relays from 127.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.3.0/24.
    I have setup an account in Workgroup Manager with mail enabled.
    Using Mac OS X Mail, I have setup the POP account and it is recognized (at least for incoming). However, when I try to send mail to that account, I receive Deliver Failed notification - Reason: Remote SMTP server has rejected address. There is also something about a diagnostic code and relay access being denied.
    Don't really know where to go from here. I have set up the MX record through DynDNS - mail.mydomain.com

    Before you go too far, where you you going (or hoping to go) with this?
    If you're planning on running your own domain's email you might as well stop right now. For the most part you can't run a reliable mail service on a dynamic IP address. For one, most major ISPs are going to reject your mail as coming from a dynamic IP address. A large portion of ISPs will also reject your mail since the reverse lookup of your server's IP address doesn't match your domain.
    If you're just running your own mail to/from your own users you might be OK, but if you're trying to email other domains it just isn't going to work.
    You might have more luck if you relay your mail through your ISP's mail server - that may overcome some of the limitations but for truly reliable email delivery you need a static IP address.
    Now, that said, in order for anyone to troubleshoot your problem (assuming it's more than just a dynamic IP address issue) you're going to have to reveal your domain name. That way people can lookup what the DNS world knows about your domain, test it, and see what the actual failure notices look like.
    The failure message is critical. It will give a specific reason and that reason will go a long way to identifying the problem. Just saying there is some 'diagnostic code' doesn't help much.

  • [SOLVED]Mail Server and Drupal/Gallery2

    I set up this server, that's got a webpage running Drupal with Menalto Gallery2 running.  I've discovered that whenever a new user tries to register with either, no email is sent, and with Gallery2 an error message comes up.  So I figure I need a mail server so that Drupal and Gallery2 can send these emails to users trying to register, I don't need it for anything else.  While I've seen a number of guides on the wiki on how to set up Hula, Postfix, and Courier, but I really don't know what it is that I need to meet my needs.

    You'll have to forgive me for not being fully versed in this, but I configured /etc/postfix/main.cf by setting relayhost and mynetworks like you said.  I didn't find anything like a permit_mynetworks option though.
    What's interesting is that while Menalto Gallery2 used to give me an error message whenever I tried to register a user with the email authentication enabled, it now says that it is sending the email, yet no email gets delivered.
    Also, when you say install postfix, am I supposed to just pacman it, or am I supposed to do everything it says in the wiki also?

  • Apple Mail Server and Active Directory

    Has anyone had any luck in using Active Directory (2003) as the directory service with an Apple Mail Server? We're testing it out, but we're unable to enable mail services for users on teh Mac server.
    If anyone has tried this and can offer up some tips, I'd be grateful!
    Dell Latitude D620   Other OS  

    Me too!
    I also discovered that Mac users who have valid accounts in AD 2003 can't have an email account in WGM enabled for them (WGM acts like its enabling email but then reverts back to "disabled"). I assume the account must be configured in the Active Directory Users and Groups admin tool before it can be enabled in WGM on the OS X email server, but I havent had any luck getting it to work yet.
