Seems OK, but isn't

[Grzesiek5753065]

My opensource zimbra server seems to work fine, but it doesn't.
I can send email from zimbra mailbox (OE or webmail), but recipient doesn't receive any email.
When I want send email to zimbra mailbox, a send but I don't receive any "MAILERDEAMON return".
All service works.
This is fresh instalation.
Help please

Do you see any errors in the log files, are there any messages in the deferred queue (look in the Admin UI)?

Which operating system is this? Please update your forum profile with the output of the following (do not post it in this thread):

zmcontrol -v

Please run the following on the Zimbra server and post the output here:

cat /etc/hosts
cat /etc/resolv.conf
dig yourdomain.com mx
dig yourdomain.com any
host `hostname` <-- use that exact command with backticks not single quotes

Please update your forum profile with that information otherwise we have to keep asking you which version of Zimbra is installed.

You would appear to have no DNS A records for 'mail.domain.com', you need one i.e.:

mail.domain.com. 7200 IN A 192.168.0.198

You also need to remove the second DNS server from your resolv.conf, you only need the one that's on 192.168.0.198.

Also, what were the answers to my other questions I asked you at the beginning of my previous post?

[Grzesiek5753065]

ZCS 6.0 - open source
I don't think that is DNS problem, because Zimbra wokr fine by few hours.
But I will remove second DNS

[h_aleksi]

He asked you to check for errors from log files and to see in adminconsole if there are deferred messages.

If your sended messages ends to deferred queque with error message indicating that can't find host, then its prob dns-issue.

What kind of connection you have, if you have regular non-corporation DSL there are great chances that you need to setup smarthost for sending mail.

[Grzesiek5753065]

Problem not solved....:-(

[Grzesiek5753065]

Where are Zimbra error logs?
Connection - DSL delivered by Fiber Cable

Maybe the reason is my OS - CentOS, not dedicated RHEL??
But CentOS is very similar to RHEL.
Maybe i'll try on Fedora?

[h_aleksi]

Logs can be founded from /opt/zimbra/log/, like Phoenix linked to logs wiki page.

By possible cause of problems in connection i meant that most of ISP's filter mailserver out (spamming reasons) in connections sold usually for home usage. In that case there needs to be set smarthost to your mailserver.

It's true that CentOS package isn't provided by zimbra, but i really don't know if there is differences big enough. There might be same kind of differences between fedora and rhel also, but i really doubt that its either of them.
If problem is in your OS then in most propable its caused by security enchantments like SELinux (HowTos/SELinux - CentOS Wiki), but never used centos so don't know if its on by default. If that's case you need to create rules allowing zimbra to work and send mail....

If you want to use OS where zimbra provides packages i recordmend you to try out ubuntu (or debian).

[Grzesiek5753065]

But which Ubuntu? Server or Desktop?
And why Ubuntu?
