What connection get refused? I'm able to login in RoundCube webmail and imap/smtp connect just fine using Mozilla Thunderbird.

What I need to verify first? I really don't know?

Thanks,

Guillaume

This issue is now completely fixed (since near that a month now), it was an antivirus related issue, to be able to fix the issue I was required to add more RAM capacity to the server. Which make the AV issue vanished and the overall machine ran now a way faster.

I give myself couples weeks prior the resolution before changing the status just in case if the issue was something different.

I'm gonna change the status to resolved at the moment.

Thanks,

Guillaume
I made some changes, I added:

127.0.0.1:10024 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o content_filter=
-o local_recipient_maps=
-o relay_recipient_maps=
-o smtpd_restriction_classes=
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=
-o smtpd_helo_restrictions=
-o smtpd_sender_restrictions=
-o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject
-o smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions=
-o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8
-o strict_rfc821_envelopes=yes
-o receive_override_options=no_unknown_recipient_checks,no_header_body_checks
-o smtp_send_xforward_command=yes
-o disable_dns_lookups=yes

to /etc/postfix/master.cf

and now what I've got is:

This is the mail system at host mail.zawack.net.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

The mail system

What I'd need to do with this?
