Mail sending but not receiving on Plesk server - email

I am having some PLESK Mail receiving issues.
I just setup a dedicated server with 1and1. The server console is PLESK 12. I am using 1and1 nameserver which are pointed correctly from the domain registrars. I am able to send mail using webmail but not able to receive it.
When I do a mail server check it I get the following error:
Error connecting to mailserver: No route to host
If anyone is aware of some missing SMTP settings that need to be set up in the initial Plesk configuration it would be appreciated.

The IP you're using to send mail is not authorized 550-5.7.1 to send email directly to our servers

I am new to DO and I have tried to look for solution online but I didn't find any answer. I am using Ubuntu OS 20.04(LTS)X64 version.
My question is that I have 2 droplets, MailServer droplet where I have installed docker composer and mailcow to run mail mails, and another droplet named WebServer hosting my domains. I have also set up all required DS records under my domain added on WebServer droplet and pointed A record mail.mydomail.com to the IP of mail server droplet. However, whenever I try sending emails they all bounce back unless the ones sending between mydomain users(user1#mydomain.com & user2#mydomain.com). It just says that "The IP you're using to send mail is not authorized.....".
Any support to help me solve this issue will be highly appreciated. An I am wondering if that approach is possible or if there is any documentation on how someone can set up dns records on one server and configure mailserver on another server using digitalocean.
Here is how I set my DNS on mydomain.com to point to MailServer IP

Send Email From Application Hosted On Local Server

I have orangescrum installed on both local server and cloud server. When I try to send E-mail to other user from local server the mail is not getting delivered. I have checked the SMTP configurations, all seems fine. I checked email track delivery on cpanel but no email is shown.
I want mail server hosted on cloud to accept those emails originated from my local server and send it to the destination email address. It seems like something is blocking the request. Should I have to configure(DKIM,SPF etc) anything on cpanel so that it accept my mails? Any help is much appreciated.
Looks like you want to use your cpanel server as "smarthost" for your local server.
In cPanel you can do it in this way:
You can add the IP address/hostname of the local server (public IP) to the
following options in "WHM Home » Service Configuration » Exim
Configuration Manager":
"Trusted SMTP IP addresses"
"Backup MX hosts"
In some cases you may need to add the IP address to the
/etc/alwaysrelay file and enable Antirelayd.

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".
