hi,
i know this is a postfix site but i have a question related with telnet which if solved will help postfix server.
when i type "telnet localhost 25" it runs fine but when i type "telnet servername 25" it waited forever. what i did was change the iptables to accept connections from the serverIP and now its refusing the connection.
telnet servername 25
Trying serverIP...
telnet: connect to address serverIP: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
I tried to send emails to my server through yahoo, and gmail but none of them seem to come through and i am guessing this might be where the problem lies. Although the maillog doesnt show any attempts to connect from yahoo and gmail servers.
thanks
