• Email Server: Not sending messages!
    5 replies, posted
Recently I've been working on this email server / program update database. The database is functioning, but the email part is not. I'm using Surge-Mail Server 7.5 (I Think) Ports 110,25, 80, 155 are open, and my port checker tells me they're not being blocked by my ISP. I can send messages only on[B] Lan[/B]. I've tried sending it to Hotmail, Yahoomail, Google Mail, and some other one. But all the inboxes are empty, though the server told me it was sent successfully. I used the web email login page on port 80, but I cannot access it from the outside for some odd reason. I've tried many servers. One worked, but the authorization kept saying it was failing; another one says DSN ([B]Not Dns[/B]) test failed; another says that port 125 is being used by something else. I did hear that Linux server can do it too, but I don't have a second machine at the moment, nor know how set it up. The email server is currently going to be for [B]me[/B] only. Can anyone help me?
Make sure some other program's not using the ports. Run NETSTAT and see if anything's using the ports besides your e-mail server.

Did you open the ports on your router as well? Unless that's what you mean by "open."

Anyone else got any ideas?
