Sorry to barge in on this discussion, but I'm having the same problem. I have postfix runing and amy trying to send/receive mail to/from outside IP addresses without using my ISP's email servers. I can send mail out, but cannot seem to recieve. I don't have a domain registerd yet, but trying to send mail to me@ipaddress. I have SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE=yes Also have POSTFIX_MDA=local My firewall (not Suse but a nat router) set for port 25 open, able to ping from wan. I'm using Kmail as my mua. Network/incoming account type/local to/var/mail/me. Should this be set up as a Maildir account?? Any other suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. This has been driving me nuts! Thanks in advance.

I'm using suse 9. I'm also using webmin. The problem is that I can't reach the smtp server from outside. Also, when I send mails to root I get error mails that the mail couldn't be sent in my emailbox (emailbox = a POP box at the web).
do you have the smtpd listening all interfaces ie.
in /etc/sysconfig/mail
SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE="yes"
no...how can i get that with webmin/yast?
You can edit via YAST -->System-->System editor-->Mail-->General
Also with your favorite editor --
