      Hi,

      I found out that I have to configure spooler.cfg (nano /etc/kopano/spooler.cfg) to use postfix for sending out e-mails.
      I have a problem with the spooler it won’t start.

          It’s neither that spooler doesn’t bind to a socket, or won’t start. It’s not able to connect to your local SMTP.

            Hi @AnotherAndy and @fbartels

            I found the problem in the master configuration.

            The line smtp has to be alligned correctly so that everything in the same “row”. This was not the case and it lead to this problem. Yes postfix was not listening at port 25 because of that.

            # ==========================================================================
# service type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command + args
#               (yes)   (yes)   (no)    (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp       inet  n       -       y       -       -       smtpd
#smtp      inet  n       -       y       -       1       postscreen
#smtpd     pass  -       -       y       -       -       smtpd
#dnsblog   unix  -       -       y       -       0       dnsblog
#tlsproxy  unix  -       -       y       -       0       tlsproxy
#submission inet n       -       y       -       -       smtpd

            This thread can be closed and is fixed.
