Re: [MASSMAIL] Dovecot on C7.2 - secure internet access

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I've tried the changes that I put below. Users are still able to log in from 
the LAN.

However, despite putting the appropriate rule in my firewall allowing port 143  
I cannot create a user on a PC outside my network.

I'm using Thunderbird to do the testing.  Is there a better way to test my 
setup?  Thunderbird doesn't give any diagnostic data, it just says it's 
failed to test the account.
