Welcome to the forums.

Which version of Zimbra is this? Is this a new install or upgrade? Do you have valid DNS A & MX records and a correct /etc/hosts file? What does a 'zmcontrol status' show? You'll find the log files details in the wiki.

my zimbra is 3.x installed in 2006.

keke

now the zimbra status is :

./zmcontrol status
antispam Running
antivirus Running
ldap Running
logger Running
mailbox Running
mta Stopped
postfix is not running
zmsaslauthdctl is not running
snmp Stopped
swatch is not running

i have checked the log in /tmp/zmcontrol.log.3028

Upgrading would be the eventual aim but I'd suggest getting this server up and running first. Which operating system is this? Have a look in the logs and see what errors there are and post some details of the problems.
