Hi Guys.
I am mew to HestiaCP and love it so far.
I am struggling with a mail-only domain setup.
I have created mail.domain.com and updated MX records to point to Hestia IP on the cPanel side.
I have created domain [dot] com under mail domain but not able to send an email. I can receive emails though.
My hostname for the server is set to mail.domain.com and I have installed lets-encrypt.
Please let me know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Kevin.

Port 25 opened?
Check the exim logs what is going wrong…
Is this is possible solution, don’t want to break anything ?
logs show following error:
2020-12-06 09:21:50 1klqEo-0003x8-D6 <= [email protected] H=localhost (webmail.domain.com) [127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=2240 [email protected]

Don’t know you will need to test it.
Make sure that spf records are created.
I think the issue is that Digital Ocean is blocking port 25, I have opened a ticket.
so DO have assured me that they are not blocking 25. So now I am bit confused.

If this is a new server (new IP for you), run some test to check if the that IP is any blacklist. Here are some tools that might help you:
If you’ll need to be sending to Microsoft email (hotmail, outlook, etc), you might want to register for the Junk Mail Reporting Program and Smart Network Data Service .
