Good morning!
I have a bit common problem, but I haven't found any solution yet, after reading really a lot of forums and tutorials. Shortly: I want to send an email from external domain to my server, but it's never recieved.
Server:
VPS with Ubuntu 16.04.
Followed tutorial:
https://www.digitalocean.com/communi...n-ubuntu-16-04 (and a lot of others after detecting problems, but that one was the main)
What I have / can do:
- Open port 25 (test passed in https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/)
- Port 25 is listening (checked by netstat -plnt, result below)
- Configured SPF, DKIM, DMARC records (test passed in https://mxtoolbox.com/)
- Using TLS (CA - Let’s Encrypt)
- Send emails to external domains (i.e. gmail.com)
- Recieve emails sent from internal (i.e. if I'll use mail/sendmail at my VPS to [email protected] - I'm recieving this email in home/admin/Maildir)
- Passing SMTP tests (https://www.wormly.com/test-smtp-server, https://www.smtper.net/ - both version passes: with tls / without tls)
What I don't have / can't do:
- Any error logs in mail.log, syslog
- Recieve email from any external domain (i.e. gmail.com)
What I try to do (but I can't):
- Send email from external domain (i.e. gmail.com) and recieve it in my Maildir in example.com domain

When I'll try to send email to my domain, I have non-delivery message:
Remote host said: 454 4.7.1 <admin@my_domain>: Relay access denied If I'll use mxtoolbox - 'test email server', the response is:

I will be very grateful for any advice what I'm doing wrong and how I can fix the problem.
