==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release):
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer?
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version:
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL):
- Web server (Apache or Nginx):
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.

i have just installed iredmail in fresh ubuntu server. Everything works perfect sending and receiving mail is working perfect.
> But now i need to use that in wordpress smtp setting. I configure smtp setting in wordpress using port 587, TLS and hosname mx.domain.com and when i send mail it says error connect smtp host.
> Can you help i think the server is not using smtp to send mail?
or is there any SSL certificate issue?

Re: Error In sending mail in wordpress

Could not connect to the SMTP host.

This means your web server was unable to connect to mail.domain.com

Typically this error is returned for one of the following reasons:

-SMTP settings are incorrect (wrong port, security setting, incorrect host).
-Your web server is blocking the connection.
-Your SMTP host is rejecting the connection.

Re: Error In sending mail in wordpress

Wordpress should work well with the iRedMail server. Please show us some info for troubleshooting:

- Show us the SMTP settings in Wordpress.
- After tried to send a testing email, please show us the relevant log in Postfix log file (/var/log/maillog) on iRedMail server.
