postfix - cant access from external
i've installed postfix and it doesn't work. when i nmap localhost, it shows port 25 as being open, but when i nmap my external ip, it shows only port 80 as being open. i opened port 80 on my router a while ago for apache, and i also opened port 25 for smtp. i called my isp and asked if they had blocked it, as some of them do to prevent spamming, and they said it was not being blocked. however, when i ran tcptraceroute on my ip and port, it returned the following:
my ip is disguised in the output, as well as the state i am in. if anyone can help me expose port 25 through postfix from my external ip, i would reallly appreciate it. thanks everyone. i love this website! ^^PHP Code:Selected device wlan0, address 192.168.1.104, port 55644 for outgoing packets
