you didn't look at the log file and read the messages describing what happens to your outgoing mail.

Lambda bhai i figured it out...the problem was due to my DNS....SMTP is now fine...but there is an issue....i can only send e-mail to those domain that are listed in my "/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts" file....i want to send emails to all domains...i dont want this rcphosts file to tell my SMTP about the allowed domains...what should i do for that....

and does that happen with every domain, or just that one domain?
i hope you installed netqmail instead of qmail.

i read an article and managed to solve this too...the rcphost file only tells qmail from which domains to accept the e-mails...i am hosting 2 domain on my qmail.i listed these two domains in rcphosts...now from qmail i can send emails to anywhere except yahoo...i cant even send mail to yahoo even if i list yahoo in rcphosts.....and recieving is fine from every where....

Salam,
If you are running Courier-IMAP then make sure authdaemon is running.mejam wrote:another problem is with my IMAP...mailserver is working fine with POP and SMTP...but IMAP gives me authentication error....i am not able to send/recieve emails through IMAP....please help...!
# ps -auwx | grep authdaemon
or
# telnet localhost 106
Best Regards.

also, if you use courier, you should seriously consider using dovecot instead.
