How about providing the full information that was asked for in the second post in this thread? How about confirming if you're behind a NAT router and whether you've set up a Split DNS? The usual reason for your problem is the lack of Split DNS and/or an incorrectly configured /etc/hosts file and you also don't need three DNS servers in your resolv.conf (you should only have the LAN DNS server).

I've added local DNS to resolv.conf:
Quote:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 213.179.249.135
nameserver 213.179.249.136
nameserver 192.168.0.254
Host is not behind NAT.

I didn't ask you to add it, I asked you to make sure that it was the only entry in that file.

Yes, it is that's why you have a 192.168.x.x private IP address. You have no valid A or MX records for the Zimbra server, you meed to set-up a Split DNS.

I also asked you to run this command (not the one you used):

Code:
host `hostname` <- do not change anything in it, do not replace the word 'hostname' with anything else
