Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Ocean

Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Ocean
Hi community,

As title says, email configured with Sentora running on DigitalOcean CentOS 6.7 droplet works (send / receive) in webmail (roundcube) but doesn't with Outlook or any other third party mail client.

I've tried different ways such as opening port 587, checking firewall rules etc. but no joy.

Is this DigitalOcean thing? I've different server running zPanel and I compared main.cf and master.cf of postfix which seems ok to me.

Anything else I should look into?

Thanks in advance,

--Dipak G.

=========

Additional info.:
- Have default main.cf and master.cf of Postfix (Sentora).
- Already added following line in master.cf for port 587.
Code:
submission inet n       -       n       -       -       smtpd
- Domain is: elixirnews(dot)com (if want to check DNS / MX records)

Did you check your maillog yet ?
Code:
[root@server01-iix ~]# tail -f /var/log/maillog
and do check opened port on your server may be the smtp running on port 25 not 587
Code:
[root@server01-iix ~]# netstat -npltu
thanks.

Check local antivirus.

587 this TLS mail not the default setup no?

RE: Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Oean
@Me.B,

I don't think that's the case because I already have other emails configured in Outlook 2016 for Mac having outgoing port 587, and it works without any problem.

RE: Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Oean
i think the problem with "permit_mynetwork" issue could you enable dovecot logging
Code:
nano /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf
pointer your dovecot logging file
Code:
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log
uncomment this
Code:
auth_verbose = yes
       
mail_debug = yes
Code:
service dovecot restart
thanks.

..and this is Outlook error (just for reference)

I am not sure whether it has to do with permissions? But that shouldn't be the case because it's a fresh Sentora install and I didn't touch anything mail related settings / files.

RE: Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Oean
the problem is with auth mail login from mail client nothing issue with ip address blocked or anything, try to install Autodiscover plugin

Code:
zppy repo add repo.alio.dk
zppy update
zppy install Autodiscover
 
activate using control panel then, remove and add your account to mail client again (thunderbird) etc.
thanks.

RE: Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Oean
@bluephantom, Installed, activated and here is the module settings I've applied.

Still no joy  Sad 

I am using following settings under Outlook 2016 for Mac.

Email / Username: {email address}
Password: {password}
Incoming mail server: mail.elixirnews.com
  Override default port: No
  Use SSL to connect: No
Outgoing mail server: mail.elixirnews.com
  Override default port: Yes (587)
  Use SSL to connect: No

=========
I just have noticed that service saslauthd was not running. I've restarted it now.

RE: Webmail Send / Receive works but Outlook doesn't | Digital Oean
After struggling 2 days and trying most of the work arounds, I've managed to fix this finally.

It was Digital Ocean / Sentora DNS conflict on Network Solutions (where domain resided). I suggest anyone who run into the same issues first make sure about DNS (especially when using Digital Ocean - in my case).

Special thanks to @bluephantom for supporting all the times.
