        My procedure is only to build the server. Setting up your domain still needs to be done. And that part is unique to you. Have you gotten your MX records set? Does the MX record match the hostname of the Zimbra server? Is Zimbra set to look to that hostname for resolution? Is DNS working on the host?

            more detailed information on setting the MX Record will be really helpful.

              Okay, have to start there as Zimbra demands that it be in place even for local email delivery.

              How is your DNS for your internal domain handled? For us, our email domain still is public, so it is a public DNS that we need to modify. Is the domain that you are emailing one that is public, or just a fake, internal one?

                  Then on your main DNS host, you will need to make an MX entry that points to your new Zimbra server.

                      What DNS host do you have?

                      Also, the hostname issue is probably the bigger one. What are your settings there?

                          No, Windows DNS (there is no AD DNS) is for your local domain, not your public one.

                              Check your running services and make sure that all is well...

                                Then look here to see the mail queues.

                                    Check to see if the email that you sent was delivered.

                                      So an email did not go through, but nothing is in the queue? That's really strange. That suggests that the server reached out and sent the email elsewhere.

                                      What is the last ~50 lines in /var/log/maillog

                                          I think that you may need to edit your /etc/hosts file...

                                          Your local IP address and hostname and FQDN to the first line and remove any other references to your host name.
