I can't connect my email to my email client (VPS - CyberPanel) - email

i have a server on RackNerd, after I successfully installed Cyberpanel, and my website was online, I created an email on Cyberpanel. Then I connected via my email client (MailBird) but it was always rejected, I have entered the data correctly, such as "Server Hostname", "username" and "password" for my email.. What should I do?

By simply saying it was always rejected doesn't provide enough information to debug your issue. Though you could try these:
Mail server SSL is issued
Postfix & Dovecot is running properly
All mail related ports are open in the firewall

How to send emails through an External SMTP Service on Digital Ocean?

I would like to send emails through an External SMTP Service (Yandex) with Sendmail on Ubuntu 18.04.3. I use Digital Ocean.
I set everything up: External SMTP Service, Sendmail, hostname. I added the MX record to my DNS.
~hostname
childrengo.org (my domain)
~host childrengo.org
childrengo.org has address <IP>
childrengo.org mail is handled by 10 mx.yandex.net.
I made a file with my login and password - /etc/mail/authinfo/yandex-auth :
AuthInfo:smtp.yandex.ru "U:<My login>" "I:<email>" "P:<password>" "M:<login>"
AuthInfo:smtp.yandex.ru:587 "U:<My login>" "I:<email>" "P:<password>" "M:<login>"
And than:
makemap hash /etc/mail/authinfo/yandex-auth < /etc/mail/authinfo/yandex-auth
I set up Sendmail to send emails through an External SMTP Service (Yandex).
But I have got an error in my syslog:
: STARTTLS=client, relay=smtp.yandex.ru., version=TLSv1.3, verify=FAIL, cipher=TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, bits=256/256
: 05BInLgB007204: AUTH=client, available mechanisms do not fulfill requirements
: AUTH=client, relay=smtp.yandex.ru., temporary failure, connection abort
: 05BInLgB007204: to=<EMAIL>, ctladdr=<root#childrengo.org> (0/0), delay=00:11:24, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=300379, relay=smtp.yandex.ru. [<IP>], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Temporary AUTH failure
I checked this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-send-email-through-an-external-smtp-service-with-sendmail-on-freebsd-10-1 and this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/ubuntu-14-04-lamp-installed-sendmail-fatal-error-when-i-sent-first-message It did not help.
I installed cyrus-sasl*
I have the TXT records for DMARC1, spf1 and DKIM for my domain.
I have tried different users to send email. And I checked the password. I also checked the user exists.
I also don't see these errors in my mail.log and in mail.err
Do you have any idea how to fix it? Or may be how to debug it?
I installed SASL again:
sudo apt-get install sasl2-bin
service saslauthd restart
service sendmail restart
After that I had a problem with authorisation. It failed even if I was sure the login and password combination is right.
In the end I find out a tricky thing. There is an application password which you can user to let some application to login to your mail from the yandex mail provider. But if you create a mail for your domain on yandex it cannot login through smtp with a password nor with an application password. It does not know which combination is ok and just return an error.
So I removed an application password and everything works fine now. I hope this small trick also would useful for somebody.
may be you need to change droplet name to domain name.

Telnet works but email doesn't

I'm setting up an Alfresco AWS instance and trying to configure inbound email.
As per the documentation I've configured it, hosted the Alfresco mail server on port 1025, set up an iptable rule to forward port 25 --> 1025, set up an folder in Alfresco with the alias 'dropoff' and added my work email as an allowed user for sending emails. I've also ensured all the ports are open on the EC2 instance
So far so good. If I test everything from my local computer with telnet:
helo mywork.com
mail from:myname#mywork.com
rcpt to:dropoff#alfresco.mywork.com
data
From: adinihan#mywork.com
Subject: test mail from command line
this is test number 1
sent from linux box
.
Then it works. I look in the Alfresco folder and there's the test email document. However, if I use Gmail and sign into myname#mywork.com and send an email through Gmail, then it doesn't work. It sends alright and there's nothing in Alfresco logging, however the document just never appears in the Alfresco folder. The from/to address is the same as the telnet command's one.
Since I can telnet from my local computer to the instance I assume it's not an issue with ports on the EC2 instance. Why would telnet work but sending it via Gmail not?
EDIT: got an email back from Google about an hour after I sent it with the error message TLS Negotiation failed: generic::failed_precondition: starttls error (0): protocol error
EDIT 2: here are my inbound emai settings in the global properties file
# Inbound #
email.inbound.unknownUser=anonymous
email.inbound.enabled=true
email.server.enabled=true
email.server.hideTLS=false
email.server.enableTLS=true
email.server.requireTLS=false
email.server.port=1025
email.server.domain=alfresco.amritmro.com
imap.server.enabled=true
imap.server.port=1143
imap.server.host=0.0.0.0

Grails mail plugin configuration for MS Exchange server

I am able to send email using my gmail account from my grails application but when I use MS exchange server account I am getting this error
Message: Mail server connection failed; nested exception is com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException: Couldn't connect to host, port: smtp.exg6.exghost.com/, 25; timeout -1;
Configuration I used is :
mail {
host = "smtp.exg6.exghost.com"
port = 25
username = "xxxx"
password = "xxxx"
props = ["mail.smtp.auth":"true",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.port":"25",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.class":"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback":"false"]
I am not sure what configuration to use. I tried changing port to 465 & 993 but that didn't work too. Please help
There are several things wrong with your setup. First of all, you are submitting mail to a Microsoft Exchange server (presumably), not Outlook. Outlook is a mail client and only provides end user functionality by connecting to the same server that you are trying to get the Mail plugin to connect to.
Your host name must be a valid Internet DNS host name -- therefore it must be "smtp.exg6.exghost.com". This might be all you have to do depending on the submission/relay policies in your SMTP server. Most likely you need to read on.
The SMTP protocol supports authentication and security for mail submission (new message injection) using either SSL or SASL. If you are using SSL, the default port to connect to is 465 (SMTPS port). If you are using SASL, then most servers are configured to accept new mail with authentication on port 587 (submit service port). Most SMTP servers will not accept mail submission on port 25.
In your case it looks like you are trying to connect with SSL, so you probably want to configure it using the SMTPS setup. To make sure that you have a proper setup, use a mail client like Thunderbird to try to make an SMTP connection to the server. It actually has a discovery algorithm in it that will try the common setups and report success when it has found one. Once you know what the connection parameters are, then you can proceed with configuring the Mail plugin.
I finally got this working. Turns out Microsoft provide a separate API / web-services to send email and perform all other mail related operations. This API gives developers programmatic access to Exchange Online, Exchange Online as part of Office 365, and versions of Exchange starting with Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (SP1). Click here for details.
exg6.exghost.com is host for Exchange Server 2007
And I am not sure but I think Exchange server 2007 and onwards don't use SMTP.

Plesk, Email with localy established domain where the mail server is external

i have a big problem with the setup for an Domain.
The Webservices are established on our Server but the Mail functions are on a Server of an other Company when we now want send an Email over our Server he tried to send it localy insted of sending it to an other server so he give back an no account here error.
Thanks for helping me out and friendly greetings.
Edit: OS Debian 6
Imap: Courier
Send: Postfix
CP: Plesk
Further to this, we are using Plesk 11.5.3 on a setup where a single mail service is activated for all domains.
So each domain cannot have the mail service turned on or off individually.
We had the same problem as Franco, and we fixed this by running the following command for each domain that had external email:
# /usr/local/psa/bin/mail --off domain.com
Works perfectly, and removes any previously created local email addresses from Postfix.
"The problem is because the server will attempt to deliver emails for the domain name locally by default. To resolve that problem you would need to set it to use the domain name's MX record."
The simple answer is to disable mail services for the subscription.
Untick the box for "Activate mail service on domain".

SMTP Mail Failures to a certain domain

Do the SMTP logs on a server (Windows 2003) only show logs of mail that were sent successfully?
We are getting bounce backs when sending mail to a particular domain:
The connection was dropped by the remote host.
It looks like a problem on the receiving server, but we dont have much information to provide them. We can send to hotmail, gmail, yahoo etc OK.
Any ideas?
Most likely, there is a spam filter in front of the receiving mail server for this domain, and this spam filter thinks your mail server is sending spam, so it's closing the connection from your mail server. One way to test this is to simulate sending a message to this mail server by opening a command prompt on your mail server, and use telnet to connect to the receiving mail server on port 25, and proceed with the process of sending a message just as a mail server would. This way, you'll be able to see how the receiving mail server responds after each step. Follow the instructions in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/153119 to see how this is done.
It turned out the sending server was blacklisted by McAfee, that was running on the receiving servers firewall.
For those that may have the problem in the future you can check if your server is blacklisted with McAfee here:
http://www.mcafee.com/threat-intelligence/ip/spam-senders.aspx
After entering your server IP, you should see a link Threat Feedback. Use this to email McAfee.
I was able to send McAfee an email with an explanation, they then removed our server from the blacklist.
