[SOLVED] Configure Pop3

[BlackJack]

Hi all,

I have installed the Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS version of Zimbra.

All ok

But now I want to configure zimbra to receive email from a domain (ex: mydomain.com)

in DNS settings of mydomain.com i set my static public IP and in firewall i set this ip with ports 110 and 25 to my internal ip.

So, wich are the configuration steps to receive email in this domain?

Thanks a lot in advance

You will need to set the MX record for the domain so that other email server know where to direct the mail.

I recommend reviewing the documentation available here: Documentation for the Zimbra Collaboration Suite; open source email, contacts, and group calendaring

Thanks for reply. This is my situation now:

- Aruba domain: example.com
- DNS: mx = my public ip (static)

- Society:
-Firewall (110, 25, 389 open port on public ip to internal ip)
-Zimbra server with 2 domain (don't ask me why i set this XD)
-mail.example.com
-example.com

So I sand mail but don't receive

Witch other settings i must set..?

Thx for support

You need to do this: Split DNS - Zimbra :: Wiki

All ok, now i can receive mail and sand

Now i would like to set an account in thunderbird(or outlook).

Which is the name o pop3 and smtp?

my server domain is example.com (not mail.example.com)

So which pop3 and smtp to set in client like thunderbird and outlook?


Thanks a lot

Whatever the name of the server is ? So if the MX points too mail.domain.com that will be the server name you use for POP3 and SMTP in your preferred mail client.

x example:

my domain is pippo.com
its ip is 220.34.35.22

aruba dns settings:

pop3: 220.34.35.22
smtp: aruba ip (i want so)
mail: 220.34.35.22
mx(1): 220.34.35.22

firewall listen 220.34.35.22 port forward (25, 110, 398) 220.34.35.22 to 192.168.1.50

server name is mail-srv

zimbra server name: pippo.com


my pop3 is:

pippo.com?
220.34.35.22?

there is a command to know it?

PS: tool for importing .pst file is fantastic


PPS: I think there is a bug in advanced version of zimbra webmail. When I compose new email and click on To: button, I can't browse contacts, only with html version.

So set your POP3/SMTP connection to be pippo.com. As your server is on a Private IP and you are using portforwarding on your firewall when you are connecting from inside you LAN you would be better setting up a Split DNS - Zimbra :: Wiki architecture so that you will resolve your internal IP for the ZCS server and not the external.

Ok, now is all ok

I can sand and receive email to mai domain.

Now I'm trying to add an another domain and set to it an external smtp. I've read that there is a bug to add it.


But no problem, this is not a big problem for now. Thx to all.


Marked solved
