Update
Was trying around things in the control panel, And added my other domain gametek.me to the e-mail [Domains] in ISPConfig, And created a test account
And tried to send a test mail to it using GMail, and suddently, It arrived, And then i tried my main domain teknikk.info, And then i got the Error User not exist, When it does exist.
So what I am wondering, Is it because the server hostname is my main domain, Cause I tried a different domain I had, and It worked with no problems ._.
I tried to delete the main domain from the cpanel, And readded it, And still didn’t work.
So, If i use my main domain, The e-mails won’t arrive, But If I use my second domain, It arrives.
I’m confused, Cause, Why does a other domain work, And not the main domain?
Cause I need to get it fixed, As I use my main domain for things.
Issue fixed
This problem is now fixed, Had to change the mydestination that postconf | grep ^mydestination Showed to a other, changed it to server1.example.com, and after that, I received the test mail’s i sendt.
-
Is postfix configured to accept mail for the domain?
postconf | grep ^mydestination?I know it doesn’t sound right because of the unknown user error, but it’s worth checking.
