Sending mail from outlook to virtual debian

Hello to all!

I have a problem and i would really need your help.
I have virtual debian on my VMware player with already set postfix and dovecot programs so I can send mail from user to user.
Next step is to set outlook express on my physical computer (win xp) to send mail to virtual debian.
I'm a real begginer and noob so...
I can't ping win from debian neither debian from win (is that bad? network adapter on VWware is set to bridged...)
I tried to set outlook's SMTP and POP3 with debians IP address bit it doesnt work.

I dont have any specific question but how to make this work. Smilie

Thank you.

POSTFIX-ADD-FILTER(8)					      System Manager's Manual					     POSTFIX-ADD-FILTER(8)

NAME
postfix-add-filter - add filter service to Postfix master.cf SYNOPSIS
postfix-add-filter [smtp service name...] [smtpd port...] DESCRIPTION
The postfix-add-filter(8) command adds an smtp service named smtp service name and and smtpd server listening on smtpd port to etc/post- fix/master.cf to facilitate integration of SMTP filters such as amavisd-new or clamsmtp. The configuration is based on the upstream recom- mendations for amavisd-new 2.6.0. 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 smtp service name or smtpd port already appear 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-filter(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
