The answer to this question is all over the forums and if you read this thread you'll also find the answer. There is even a wiki article that describes what's necessary.

BTW, the version of Fedora that you're using is deprecated and will not be supported in the next major release of Zimbra. A 'bleeding edge' distribution is not exactly the best platform for a stable mail server, I'd suggest you use CentOS 6 (with the RHEL binary) instead of Fedora.

Thank you very much phoenix for your quick reply.Currently my hosts file like this..

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost.localdomain localhost
#::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
[root@localhost ~]#

My problem is which IP address should I use?Can I use any name for the FQDN.DO I need to configure DNS server.I saw in several forums they've said DNS server is need to install zimbra.Actually I dont have DNS.I use webmin to make DNS.but it didn't work.sometimes this can be stupid question.If it is please forgive me.thanku you.

[chalaka]

Sorry not FQDN.it should be FQHN

My problem is which IP address should I use?

I've already said that this has been covered in the forums and in the wiki article, go and read the wiki article (I've already given you the link) and follow the instructions in there.

The wiki article to which I gave you the link tells you exactly what should be in your DNS A & MX records and the hosts & resolv files, there's even a section that tells you what commands to execute to check those records - have you done that?

[chalaka]

Yes I did.but when i going to restart the dnsmasq it failed.this is the results i got

[root@mail ~]# service dnsmasq stop
Shutting down dnsmasq: [FAILED]
