Help with my mail server?

Question

i have a mail server that runs out of my home. i use the free version of mailtraq. I also have a dynamic ip, so i have been using dynu basic. I also have all of the ports forwarded in my router (80 for webmail, 25 for smtp, and 110 for pop3). I set mailtraq to use my isp's smtp for outgoing mail so that works. What doesn't work is when i send mail to my server, it won't receive anything. It was working up until about a month ago. Help??

Answer 1

I'll bet that your ISP is blocking port 25 inbound. Get on the net from another machine and run this command from a command prompt:

telnet 25

Where is the address of your router. Better yet, use the FQDN for your mail server to verify that name resolution is working properly as well.

If you can't establish a telnet session on your mail server your ISP is blocking port 25. If they're doing that, you'll probably need to get a redirect service and relay your mail on a different port.

Send me your mail domain off line and I'll test from my end if you wish.

That's over my head, sorry but some of the other answers look like they may help. Luck.
