I read the help on https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/email/faq Iread that the problem would be something with the hostname in /etc/hosts and /etc/postfix/main.cf when i ran hostname I get 89.205.123.186.robi.com.mk but on hostname -f I get only 89 how can I fix this? to receive mail?
Howdy,
You would want your hostname to be a full FQDN... something like host.domain.tld.
You can try setting your hostname with "hostname host.domain.tld", then restart Postfix with "/etc/init.d/postfix restart".
If you go into System Settings -> Recheck Config, it should let you know during that system check if it thinks that email problem is occurring.

well i write 's1.stipka.com' and restart the postfix but when i run 'Recheck Config' I get the following error
Your Postfix configuration is missing the system's mail hostname stipka.com from the mydestination line, which will cause mail to bounce.
Do I need to put all my domains in mydestination in /etc/postfix/main.cf ?
Tanks for the help
Do I need to put all my domains in mydestination in /etc/postfix/main.cf ?
Nope! Just the systems hostname. Or actually, as it mentions above, the "mail hostname". Which is usually the systems hostname, but for some reason in your case is a regular domain name.

What to do now? Pleas can you explain in more detail because I'm a beginner at web hosting. My host is 89.205.123.186.robi.com.mk ant my /etc/postfix/main.cf looks like this 'mydestination = localhost.com, localhost, 89.205.123.186.robi.com.mk' My /etc/hosts is 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 89.205.123.186 89.205.123.186.robi.com.mk s1
Is this ok and what shuld i do next? to make mail receive mail?
Tanks
