Subject: Sendmail won't receive remote messages
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2003 19:23:51 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bif8v7$sd7$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

My mail server has been working without a glitch for a number of months.
All of a sudden it won't receive messages from the Internet.  Local mail
within my network is still received.  Our ISP is under new management - so
maybe its not a problem with my system!

I'm able to access my webpage OK over the net at http://www.mydomain.com.au.

Could somebody let me know whether there's a problem with my config, or is
there a problem with my ISP?

Below is a description of my setup:

OS: Slackware 9.0
Sendmail 8.12.9
Firewall: only port 25 open to receive mail
I access my mail with Squirrelmail and IMAP2

If I telnet to my mail server from a dialup, everything looks OK (I've
substituted my address with a fictitious one):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# telnet myserver.com.au 25
220 myserver.com.au ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.9/8.12.9; Tue, 26 Aug 2003 07:34:58
