I login & send email through thunderbird using SSL and it's ports (so I no longer connect using 25/26). Occasionally I use webmail (Squirrelmail)
My scripts do send mail via sendmail.
Does my cpanel server still need the basic 25 & 26 ports to deliver and receive mail successfully, or can they be blocked in APF without any problems arising?
Currently I am using Linux + cPAnel and using the port 25 for email sevrer. Currently we facing 1 problem is, some user's ISP is not support port. May I know how can I add additional port into server and allow users to send mail by different port?
I have been hosting several of my clients (for whom I have created a web site) on a cPanel VPS. The VPS is Xen-based, has 1GB of RAM, 2 CPU cores, 80GB of disk space and 800GB of bandwidth. Everything is running smoothly and I'm quite satisfied. It has a VPS-optimised version of cPanel and the speed is just as good as a dedicated (sometimes even better). I even have a second, small, VPS as a secondary nameserver.
Now it comes to this. I am planning to sell shared (and in the future possible reseller) hosting. Is it wise to stick with a VPS or to get a dedicated? The investment it takes differs a lot, since a VPS can be a lot cheaper than a dedicated server (depening on what you need and your provider of course).
A lot of people start off with a dedicated server when they first start their website because they feel they will eventually need it anyway. They also don't want to go through the trouble of transferring their website in the future. Do you think it's wise for a new website to do this or do you feel they should start off with shared hosting and then transfer their website after it already has a lot of traffic?
I have configured qmail+spamassassin. It working find but still I have 2 problem. I am receiving spam mails from my own account to my own account e.g. from=info@domain.com to info@domain.com. How can I block this spam?
I have noticed that a customer's emails are banned by certain RBL/antispam filters even though they are sent using SMTP-Authentication through a non-banned SMTP server.
It seems that its ISP IP is blacklisted..... Is this normal?
I just enabled SMTP on my box, and tried requesting a loss password on my website, i get this error.

I have a reseller account that uses WHM/cPanel. So of course, SquirrelMail and Horde are already installed. I like to check my email at work, but unfortunatley, my employer blocks connections for say mydomain.com:2095.
Is there a way around this? I'm too much of a noob to try and install Horde again, bypassing the cPanel. I use Horde as the example because I need a good calendar and address book.
Is anyone successfully using cPanel with smtp port 587 and have a working email account?
After deciding that Plesk wasn't for me due to the lack of reference material in this and other forums, I had my hosting company, ServInt, delete my old vps and install a new one with cPanel.
Everything went fine until I configured my email. Just like with Plesk, I cannot access the smtp server via Outlook. I can ping it successfully, but it either terminates the connection or doesn't recognize the correct user name and password. With Plesk, it was a simple matter of enabling the use of port 587.
Not so with cPanel, at least for me. Even though the Exim service is enabled and another instance is enabled on port 587, I still can't connect. Thought it might be CFS, which is new to me with this install, so made sure it was disabled. Opened up a ticket with ServInt and even their techs can't get it functioning, so _they've_ opened up a ticket with cPanel.
Hence the title of this post, I can't beleive that I'm the only one whose had this problem before because blocking port 587 has been done by BellSouth/AT&T for many years now.
Nothing like having your company email down for over 6 hours to keep you up at night.
if i try to telnet to yahoo's mail server, i get this:
[root: #] telnet mx1.mail.yahoo.com 25 Trying 4.79.181.14... telnet: connect to address 4.79.181.14: Connection timed out Trying 4.79.181.15... telnet: connect to address 4.79.181.15: No route to host Trying 67.28.113.11... telnet: connect to address 67.28.113.11: No route to host Trying 67.28.113.10... telnet: connect to address 67.28.113.10: No route to host
but it works from one of my other hosted servers. this keeps mail building up in my queue as it cannot send mail out cause the connection times out.
I can telnet locally to send myself email. This is my own dedicated server.
i have no idea whats up - default policy is ACCEPT in the OUTPUT chain of iptables.
I have an office internal website and I opened a port in the gateway of my office (7080) to this website (server )'s 80 port. That makes this website open to public as office has static IP. And then when I view the site from home . it's fine. But when I tried to login, the site is using a pop-up, I guess it's http authentciation, login, I was redirected to a url without my port number any more, that stops my access to the site as obviously I would.
some Chinese forums hotlinking images from my site and I even delete those images they keep sending me huge amount of http requests to my hosting server and eating 800mb of memory and upto 1GB cause server crash
I tried to block incoming referrer traffic from those sites using htaccess but it didn't work , I still see their http request on my server logs and memory keep goes high , am not sure my code is the right
how can I block these http request from these domains , what is the right htaccess code , I use DirectAdmin panel by the way
I'm currently experiencing a lot of IP's starting with 200 and 201 (from Brazil) some IP’s have over 200 connections. I have APF installed and want to know how to block a block on ip's if this is possible. IPS: 200.11.******* 201.*******
