Topic: Two questions. Not able to send e-mail to gmail account, website issue

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): 0.9.5-1
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Linux mailserver 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 18:01:55 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): Apache
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?non-pro
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====
Question 1:
After installing iRedMail, I have been able  to send and receive e-mail to/from my yahoo.com and hotmail.com accounts but when I send mail from my iRedmail account to gmail account it does get delivered using Thunderbird. Do I need to change some settings in the Thunderbird configuration?

Question 2:
When I tried to access my website, www.example.com ( i have used example.com as a dummy name here, real name is different), it takes me to Roundcude Webmail page. What changes should I make so that it will take me to my site page? I am planning to install Wordpress CMS. I haven't installed Wordpress yet as iRedMail requires a fresh server install. What should I lookout for while installing Wordpress so  that iRedMail and wordpress both will reside side-by-side on the same server (web server and mail server on the same ubuntu server)?

What's the issue here? Do you mean can NOT send email with Thunderbird?

iRedMail generates file /var/www/index.html or /var/www/html/index.html on your system, please open it and you will see it redirects http request to webmail ("/mail"). You can remove this file.

The issue is I can not send e-mails to my gmail account from my iRedMail server account. I can send e-mail to yahoo and hotmail account without any problem. I am not sure if Gmail is throwing mails away because of some sort of security certificate issue with my iRedMail installation or what.

*) Did you check Spam folder in Gmail?
*) Did you get any bounce message from Gmail (in your mailbox)? We need technical info in this bounce message to help troubleshoot.
