[Postfix+Dovecot+Ubuntu] Cannot receive any mails from Google,Yahoo,Outlook... to my @xxx.com account

Posted on January 3, 2015

Let me say that for now I send mails (for Yahoo, Google, Outlook). Listening on port 587 for SMTP I send mails from @xxxx.com account to N acounts. :)

But for IMAP case, I do not have a clear reason why I cannot receive any mails from other accounts (Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.) to my @xxxx.com account.

I checked mail.err (empty) and mail.log report me this:

Hi.

MX record points to mail.yrma.biz

Well, in fact for the two users I’ve registered in mysql tables, the folder:

/var/mail/vhosts/example.com/user1/new
/var/mail/vhosts/example.com/user2/new

are still empty. I mean, no Yahoo or Gmail messages are not coming to those folders…

. .

yrma.biz has no MX records.
