Do you mean telnet from an external site to this address?
I didn't put an entry into the the router to nat on port 7025.
I noticed when I was looking in the forum before I started a thread.
from the localhost I can telnet to itself
ie
$telnet mydomain.com 7025
Trying 127.0.0.1
Connected to mydomain.com (127.0.0.1).
220 mydomain.com Zimbra LMTP ready
I can't from the outsite world because I have put a router entry, but if postfix has already received this I assume that it shouldn't need an outside reference, right?
So is the problem that when telnetting its able to see that it should be going to the localhost IP, but when postfix is doing it, its not seeing the hosts file, its working off of what the external dns server gives for the IP? (clutching at straws) |
