Full Version: Setup Postfix for MyBB SMTP
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hi guys, PHP mail for my forum isn't working reliably so I thought I would use postfix to setup a SMTP server on my VPS host running CENTOS.
How would I do this and make an email account for: [email protected]
Thank you.

Please help a newb in need.
Unfortunately I have no experience with CentOS but there are probably many howtos for setting up postfix.

I have not been able to find any, probably the 24,000 people who have viewed this either.
I put the first line of your post in google and came up with this:

Why would they be bots?
Also, I have it up. Now I want to use it with MyBB but it doesn't work with the SMTP settings.
What error do you get? (system mail logs in your ACP)

It's a bunch of gimmerish to me.
POP3#132SMTP163.222.123.11()
That doesn't look like an error message MyBB logs in the ACP. Or are you connecting to a POP3 port instead of SMTP?
That's what I thought, but nope that doesn't seem to be the issue.
I really don't want to reinstall mybb I put so much affort in.
