How I would know SMTP is working or not ?

[ChandanP1994]

Hi,

I have installed Zone-MTA on my Ubuntu VPS 18.04 and working fine via services, And I am looking for sending domain configurations.

How I can test smtp is working or not via Zone-MTA ?

Version and status :

• Nodejs - v12.22.6
• Redis-server - v=6.2.5
• redis status - Active .

Two options: 1) Set your new Zone-MTA install as the SMTP server in your email client and send a mail from there. 2) Use Telnet to send a test mail - https://www.shellhacks.com/send-email-smtp-server-command-line/

Thank you for your answer @netweaveruk

Should I need to install any other plugin like wildduck and Nodemailer for smtp server ?

I have tried with netstat command but no service is active with 25 port.

During the Telnet its showing connection refused.

telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

Plaintext SMTP submission happens on port 587 (or whatever you have configured as your feeder in zonemta), not 25.

Looks like the default of zone-mta-template is set to port 2525

This is not an issue. Close ?
