I followed Life With qmail for installation on a Compaq laptop running Ubuntu 10.04.01 64 bit.
Everything went fine until testing. All of the local send & receive tests succeeded. I can receive mail from from a remote host (my yahoo account).
Testing outbound mail failed. I cant get any mail delivered off of my own local network. The error from the log /var/log/qmail/current is:
Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection._(#4.4.1)
I've read all I could find, but nothing seems to apply. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the /etc/tcp.smtp file. I'm not sure how to adjust that. I've tried a couple of entries that didn't work, but then again, I'm not certain how entries should be formatted. The only example I've found is the one in LWQ & it doesn't offer much in the way of explanation. If there is other documentation I haven't found it.
Hope someone can help.
Thanx,
Ed
