Hi There!

I have a Exchange Server 2003 running on a Windows 2003 Server.

Everything seems to work properly, and I’m able to send mail, but NOT receive them.
When I try to send an email, I get the following in return:

Undelivered Mail Returned To Sender

This is the Postfix program at host fupA.post.tele.dk.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that the message returned below could not be delivered to one or more destinations.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the message returned below.

The Postfix program

<BigM@ThePlayer.dk>: mail for theplayer.dk loops back to myself


and in a attach file the following is written:


Reporting-MTA: dns; fupA.post.tele.dk
Arrival-Date: Fri, 27 May 2005 17:55:15 +0200 (CEST)

Final-Recipient: rfc822; BigM@ThePlayer.dk
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; mail for theplayer.dk loops back to myself


My MX-Records and A-Record should be right.


When I use telnet to send an email I get the following result.

220 EXCHANGE.M.AD Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.3790.1830 ready at
Fri, 27 May 2005 21:05:47 +0200

Connection to host lost.

So that looks good enough!

Hope somebody can help me.

Thanks in advance
 
Have you tried to telnet to port 25 from the outside?

What is your network configuration? Are you behind a firewall and if so what kind? Is it configured to allow port 25 in? Are you using NAT?


I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
 
Hi Mark!

Thank you. I found out that my DNS settings for ThePlayer.dk was wrong, so I fixed them, and now it's working. :)

Wuuhuu...
