I am not sure do you have the ufw command? For the firewall? If you try ufw status what do you get?

Hi,
I have tried to install citadel using the info here https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-email-server/
it all appeared to work, I can log in to the web interface and configure stuff.
However when I try and configure an email client it can not connect.
I tried to telnet to port 25 from a terminal on the server and get this
Trying 192.168.1.145...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
I get this for all the ports for smtp/imp/pop3
netstat -lnp does not list any of the ports as listening
sudo netstat -lnp
Active Internet connections (only servers)

Thanks in advance

HI,
Nope no UFW installed.
Also if i repeat the tests done in a terminal session on the server to 127.0.0.1 i get the same results.
hello, for some reason i can't connect to SMTP, firewall Ports are open, it worked some time back. I tried telnetting into port 25 but no response. Any Diagnostics or Logs i can parse from the Server? I just installed it today.
how i can send email from citadel to @gmail.com? im using a raspberry pi 4
Hi
I have been trying to get citadel working. i used the method easy install method described here
https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-email-server/
Which i believe is the easy install method.
I have the server up and running and can connect to it via smtp and imap as long as i dont try to use ssl/tls in the client. as soon as i try to use that i get the following message in the citadel console
crypto: SSL_accept failed: (null)
Hello,
after some uptime Citadel just unbinds on all Mail ports (IMAP and SMTP) but not Webcit. I have to restart Citadel via Webcit for the ports to be rebinded again. Any wayto not make this happen? Thanks
Where is citadel server mail logs?
I have citadel running already, now I'm trying to connect with an email client (Outlook), but the client can not connect. It seems auto-discovery is not working.
Is there a way to make auto-discovery working on Citadel?
I am interested in contributing as a developer to Citadel. Who do I contact or where do I sign up?

What would you like to work on? We have a Citadel Development forum where you can participate, and/or you can just clone the git repository and get cracking on something that interests you.

Generally this means that something else on your system is either occupying or blocking port 25.
Check for:
* Other email programs (exim, postfix, etc) installed on the system -- remove them
* Any sort of firewall script (iptables, firewalld, etc) restricting port 25
i think i isolated the issue, citadel isn't binding to Port 25
If the Citadel Server cannot bind to any of its ports, it will post a diagnostic message in the Aide> room telling you what happened.
Where is citadel server mail logs?
Citadel writes to the normal syslog. Please consult the manual for rsyslogd and feel free to turn up the log retention for "citserver" if you need to.
Is there a way to make auto-discovery working on Citadel?
Without knowing what "outlook" is looking for, it's difficult to answer this question.
Generally speaking, you want to set your Citadel server as your SMTP server (port 587) and IMAP server (port 143) with your Citadel username or email address as the login credential.
Hi,
My mail got bounced with this message "This message does not pass authentication checks (SPF and DKIM both )"
How do I configure SPF and DKIM on latest version of citadel? My OS is Debian 11
Successfully configured SPF. Now how about DKIM? Any recent documents to follow?
Successfully configured SPF. Now how about DKIM? Any recent documents to follow?
Found docs on dkimproxy and applied but the moment I put 127.0.0.1:10027 in smarthost setting, email sent just did not arrive to destination. No bounce whatsoever.
However, here at citadel.org we have found that SPF + DMARC is sufficient.
Can someone tell me how to install Citadel server on Debian 11? It looks like it is not supported (only on 10.3). Thank you!

Citadel runs just fine on Debian 11 (in fact, that's what this site is running).
What you won't find anymore is .DEB packages in the repository, which is just fine because they tended to be outdated anyway.
Try running the container version using Docker, or run the Easy Install.
Either one will produce a running system that is excellent on Debian.
