Done! I then restarted postfix and there seem to be no new errors in
the logs. However, I still cannot telnet into port 25:
âdcl:~$ telnet sharingcenter.eu 25
Trying 178.63.65.188...
Trying 178.63.65.136...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: No route to host
âdcl:~$ telnet mail.sharingcenter.eu 25
Trying 178.63.65.136...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
âdcl:~$
