Hi,

 

i followed the tutorial available on

http://www.coolder.com/iblog/?p=32 in order to setup a testing mail

server on my local PC (under windows 7).

i setup it at first using my gmail account and it was working perfectly as relay for my web development purpose.

later i setup our company smtp server address and once again it was working perfectly.

 

i

went 2 weeks on holidays and today i needed to test a mail sending from

my web development computer (the same as before and the same which

holds Mercury/32 server) and now it doesn't work.

i didn't change anything... just switch off/on computer before and after my holidays... so what's happening ?

moreover

mail server sends email/error notifications to postmaster@localhost

however, i'm not able to get them whatever mail client i use (pegasus

mail client or thunderbird)

 

1. how to get error notifications to postmaster ?

 

i know i'm a rookie regarding mail servers but with tutorials i can't make a mistake... especially when it worked before :-(

 

thank a lot for helping me.
