How do you know you're not receiving mail?

Hi - thanks for your reply!
I've set up Squirrelmail which is sending fine but not receiving.

I also just setup Outlook to connect via IMAP. I can see my sent emails in Outlook but nothing in my inbox.

Wiped the server and started again yesterday and I'm getting the same problem.

I've just received a delivery failure for my test messages...
Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the server for the recipient domain cardiffit.co.uk by mail.cardiffit.co.uk. [162.13.144.243].
The error that the other server returned was:
550 5.1.1 <mike@cardiffit.co.uk>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
The mailbox definitely exists :/

From the "you're probably not the first person on the planet to run into this problem" department...
Googling your error message (User unknown in local recipient table) produced lots of seemingly pertinent and informative hits.

thanks for the link, but that's complicated how to for installing debian, and then a buttload of packages. if it didn't work the first two times I would give up on that one. If you want to keep it, looks like you should research the ispconfig-3 app.
