I have Hestiacp and Postal mail server installed on separate VPS. Hestiacp is configured with global relay to postal VPS to send emails and everything works fine.

Now I have setup Hestiacp and Postal mail server on same VPS. Postal mail server is configured to listen port 24 and is working fine. Hestiacp is also working fine and sending email without global smtp relay configured.

Now when I setup global smtp relay to postal which is running on same VPS, email stop working and I get below error in logs

We don’t support it… I suggest strongly to keep the Postmail and Hestia on a separate VPS
