Cannot send mail using any mail client

I just moved a few of my sites from a reseller account to my own server. I had the sites up and running in under a half hour, but I'm having a problem with email.
At first I could only receive email, then I couldn't send or receive email. I would get this message when sending an email to an account on the server:

Code:

Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550-mail-qy0-f189.google.com [209.85.221.189] is currently not permitted to
550-relay through this server. Perhaps you have not logged into the pop/imap
550-server in the last 30 minutes or do not have SMTP Authentication turned on
550 in your email client. (state 14).

I then checked /etc/localdomains and added the missing domains. I was now able to send AND receive email, for as long as the domains stay in /etc/localdomains - they get deleted, I don't know how, I don't know why, it lasts only a few hours at most. I should also mention that I can only send email using one of the webmail clients.

When I can't send an email with a webclient, this is the error I get:

Code:

ERROR:Message not sent. Server replied: Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
550 Verification failed for <[b]hidden@example.com[/b]>
No Such User Here"
Sender verify failed

The email address shown in the message above is the email I'm send from.

I can receive email using any mail client (test with apple mail and outlook), but neither can send email, even if I can send using a webmail client.

Here's a list of my problems that I can't fix:
1) domains do not stay listed in /etc/localdomains
2) when the domains aren't listed, I cannot send email at all
3) when they are listed, I can send email only through the webmail clients
4) I can receive email with a mail client, but cannot send any email at any time

EDIT: I just tried sending an email to a domain on the same server that has its email hosted by google apps, the email to that domain appears to go through on the horde & squirrel mail side, but I never receive it when checking for the email on the google apps email page. Emails to @gmail accounts go through.

 

from the moment I got your reply in an email I've been waiting for an email problem - none so far, and outlook suddenly started to work.

But the log did make me notice that the "automatic" option for the mail server decided to make it "local" so any email sent on the server was routing to the catchall address on the server and not making its way to the google server.

Thanks! If the other problems reoccur, I'll post the log in the thread.

 

Thanks Don.

I have another question regarding mail.

Any reason why (for incoming and outgoing SSL) is the mail server listed as localhost.localdomain instead of mail.mydomain.com?

 

wow, thanks for all the help.

All problems appear to be gone.

Thanks again!

EDIT: when I run /scripts/fixcommonproblems 2 domains (1 subdomain and 1 addon domain) get removed from /etc/localdomains

is there a log output that would tell me why?

 

running both commands have the same result with no output.

Both addresses are in /etc/remotedomains

EDIT: removed both domains from /etc/remotedomains and added them to localdomains and everything is working perfectly and the domains stay when running fixcommonproblems


THANK YOU SO MUCH!
