Re: [cobalt-users] QUBE2 / Email retrieving on centrilized mailbox fails



Hi Ian,
 
Thank you for your help, although I understand things are going beyond my computer culture.
 
Regarding the reconfiguration of the Email service, I keep trying from time to time without success.
 
I found the log files in the directory you said, except I do access to the Qube directories with Cute FTP, and even logged as "admin" I cannot view the file wich attributes say "-rw-------" nor can I change the attributes, on top of this I do not see what the "less" command might be.
 
Regarding the access by "telnet", since I never used such a software, I shall it try tomorrow.
 
Considering your last question, I am working on the www through a 3com ISDN router, that does dial on demand to my ISP. On this side, I do not experience other problems...
 
Thank you very much for your support,
 
Best regards,
 
Jeff

Hello Jeff,
 
Firstly, you will find mail transaction logs in /var/log on the Qube (use the "less" command to view the files).  However, your problem sounds like a couple of things.  Have you checked your DNS settings?  You should have at least your internal domain and the qube listed here, though, because you can send mail okay I suspect these are fine.  The other thing to try may be to reenter all of you email server details including passwords into the user interface and make sure your internet domain (i.e syneric.com) is entered into the "Recieve email addressed to these domains" dialogue box.  I have had mixed problems with the web interface on the Qube, somtimes it just looses its settings or does not update them.
 
Some questions:
 
Do you have a leased line to your ISP?
Can you telnet the qube and ping your ISP email server from there?
 
Keep trying!!
 
Ian
