Question
E-Mail - Proper Domain (myorigin) - always xx@localhost.domain.cf - DOVECOT
After 16 long hours I've finally fought through and made a E-Mail server.
Still have some rough finishes, and some problems, I can't figure out on my own. So, as a first post, I must ask for help.
Here is my configuration for Dovecot :: main.cf
# BASIC CONFIGURATION
myhostname = mail.domain.cf
mydomain = domain.cf
myorigin = $mydomain
mydestination = mail.domain.cf, domain.cf, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
Everything works fine - but not that mydomain string. It just wouldn't do and convert it like a proper string should do. I tried changing origin, removing mydestination and all other possible things my imagination can do.
Still, using mail function and sending to my personal e-mail address will result in this:
Return-path:

I've tried some relays - but then it just didn't send. I'm not actually caring as much for how it looks - but that's my server, and I'm trying to integrate RainLoop on top of it.
Managed to finally get a connection - but I can't sign in using non-root user with simpleguy@domain.cf
localhost dovecot: auth-worker(2098): Error: pam(simpleguy@domain.cf,188.226.xxx.xxx): pam_authenticate() failed: Authentication failure (/etc/pam.d/imap missing?)
localhost dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts in 5 secs): user=, method=PLAIN, rip=188.226.xxx.xxx, lip=188.226.xxx.xx$
It's same for Thunderbird. Can't log-in. Not sure why.
Would be greatly appreciated, if you could help me deal with this problem, as well as giving tips for the second one (disconnects). I DID learn a lot today already.
Here's the additional info, if you are looking to help me:
From what I gathered, there is something limiting SSH/SSL connections.
