External SMTP not working
Hello,
I'm just trying to setup VESTACP as a little control panel for a small VPS that I am running on the side. Currently, everything is working perfectly, the only issue I'm having is that when I go to add my email accounts to places such as Outlook 2010, or Apple Mail on iPhone the SMTP does not work.
A few things to note:
Vultr Hosting VPS running Ubuntu 16.04 x64
Exim showing as Exim4
Running mutliple domains
SMTP working when sending from the domain.tld/webmail (roundcube)
I hope this is a small problem that can be fixed easily.
Things I have looked into:
Reverse DNS - Not sure whether this is set correctly
In exim4.conf.template - # infront of hostlist (whitelist / spammers)
Hopefully someone can help me?
EDIT - I have not got any form of SSL certificate, only that with the default VestaCP installation

I also have this problem. Please help
Re: External SMTP not working
You can try to check the connection to your smtp server manualy. Run the following command from your client:
https://www.port25.com/how-to-check-an- ... session-2/
Code: Select all
telnet yourserver 25

Re: External SMTP not working
I believe the problem is also that I'm sending all the DNS traffic to two different servers. This means that I believe It's not setting it correctly. Will be running on a different domain from now but would still greatly appreciate any suggestions.. Does this happen to anyone else running Vesta with Vultr Hosting?

Re: External SMTP not working
Vultr block port 25 for outgoing traffic by default.
Using other ports
