I tried all and I noticed the following: when I did netstat I found that sendmail: accp is lestining on 127.0.0.1:25, so how can I change this to make it lestin to any incoming mail??

We really need more information, like have you tried :

netstat -an (or netstat -tupan) ???

is courier listening on those ports? if not try :

ps auwx | grep courier (as root of course)

and see if courier is running. If both if these are true then make sure you do not have any firewall rules (remember during install RH asks you what kind of firewall you want??). you can check this via (again as root): iptables -L (make sure all policies are accept and not rules are showing) or ipchains -L (same deal).

I hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi, I installed courier (imap, sendmail, esmtp) on

redhat

7.1. When I send from localhost to localhost it is fine, but when I try so send from somewhere

else

the internet to the actual ip address of the

machine,

I get the error that smtp connection could not be establish (4.4.1). Also, when I tried to telnet to smtp port, the connection was refused.

This is a RedHat FAQ. Sendmail on RH only listens to 127.0.0.1 by default. Look at the RH documentation for details on how to open your sendmail to accept email from the internet.
