postfix sending but not recieving
Hi all,
I just setup postfix on my server thats running Centos 5.x with webmin. Now I can send email out of the server but I cant receive email. Server side I can telnet into the 110 and 25 port but coming from the outside of the box I can only telnet into the 110 port but not port 25. The server is behind a router and I checked the firewall of the router to make sure it was allowing port 25 connections and it was. Is it possible I have my MX record not set right?

postfix-add-policy
POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8) System Manager's Manual POSTFIX-ADD-POLICY(8)
NAME
postfix-add-policy - add policy service to Postfix master.cf
SYNOPSIS
postfix-add-policy [policy name...] [username...] [argv...]
DESCRIPTION
The postfix-add-policy(8) command adds an smtp policy server named policy name running using username and called as argv to etc/post-
fix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP policy servers such as postgrey or postfix-policyd-spf-perl. The configuration is based on
the Postfix SMTPD_POLICY_README. Adminstrators should verify it is appropriate for their requirements.
The original file is copied prior to modification and left in /etc/postfix to make it possible to revert changes easily.
Available in the Debian package for Postfix version 2.5.3 and later.
DIAGNOSTICS
If the given policy name already appears in the master.cf, a message will be printed to standard out and master.cf will not be modified.
ENVIRONMENT
MAIL_CONFIG
Directory with Postfix configuration files.
The postfix-add-policy(8) command should use this, but it currently doesn't. It is hard coded to /etc/postfix. This should be
changed.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
None
FILES
/etc/postfix/master.cf
SEE ALSO
postconf(5), Postfix configuration
