All of our email and web stuff is handled off site. Our email provider is godaddy.The smtp ser
New Member [SOLVED] Sending mails to remote domains is not working. Hi All, I reinstalled my system
Host Or Domain Name Not Found Type=a: Host Not Found
again. Followed Falko's instruction close to every single letter. I now status=bounced (host or domain name not found. name service error for name= type=a host not found) have a kind of working system with ISP Config as well. My problem now is as
Smtp_host_lookup
follows: I can send emails to the domains I've created in ISP Config example.com and example1.com Meaning I can send email from [emailprotected] to [emailprotected] But when http://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=45858 I try to send emails to [emailprotected] or [emailprotected] I get the following message in my /var/log/maillog Aug 09 18:45:39 myhostname postfix/smtp[2349]: 74FBF30501: to=<[emailprotected]> relay=none, delay=10, status=deferred (Name service error for name=gmail.com type=MX: Host not found, try again) But when I send an email from gmail.com to the domain I created in Postfix using ISP https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/sending-mails-to-remote-domains-is-not-working.229/ Config, I can receive the email successfully. It only seems to be a problem while sending the email out of my LAN network. I've an ADSL router and it is configured to allow connections on the following ports: 80,81,443,pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps I did not install Firewall that comes in FC4 and I disabled SELINUX just as told to in Falko's instructions. Is there anything else I need to do with regards to postconf configuration which would help my postfix send emails from AUthorised users like the ones created of ISP Config to send emails to others like @hotmail.com, yahoo.com, gmail.com etc etc., Thanks for your time and help. Much appreciated. - Nanda.

Name service error for name=smtp.gmail.com type=A: Host not found, try again) someone@gmail.com If I restart the service (sudo service postfix restart) then emails work until the next boot. Why? What is the difference? During the Postfix installation I chose the configuration “Internet with smarthost” but then I followed a tutorial for …Internet Site” to finish the configuration so this might be the problem(?) I just want to send emails.
