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. UPDATE: The problem might be that that Postfix is run before the Wi-Fi is connected. email services postfix share|improve this question edited Sep 20 '15 at 19:08 JakeGould 21k56079 asked Sep 19 '15 at 17:56 clemtoy 11617 I wonder, is this server name perhaps resolved when the system starts, but your nameserver isn't reachable then? –Thomas Weinbrenner Sep 19 '15 at 18:11 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote Shorter answer. With a “Host not found, try again.” it could mean that your server is having DNS resolution issues, or Postfix itself is having DNS resolution issues. But that is the core of what has to be cleaned up. As for how to clear it up, your question doesn’t provide enough details on your base OS or setup to give a succinct answer. You seem to be running Ubuntu/Debi

New Member [SOLVED] Sending mails to remote domains is not working. Hi All, I reinstalled my system again. Followed Falko's instruction close to every single letter. I now have a kind of working system with ISP Config as well. My problem now is as 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 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 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.

This looks as if your system cannot resolve domains. What does /etc/resolv.conf look like? Are there any DNS servers in it? If not, you could add the following lines to it: Code: nameserver 145.253.2.75 namese
