    Hi, I think I'm missing some settings for my mailserver or something in Lxadmin.
    I have phpBB installed and when someone registers or gets a PM or something the e-mail won't send to people who uses Hotmail (and probably Yahoo and other free mails).

    I just moved the forums to this new server, before, when it was hosted at fxdomains the e-mails worked fine to everyone :(

    You need to have correct mail server hostname and reverse dns entries set up for the IPs.

    Woah, you already lost me.
    Where and how do I get the mail server hostname?
    What DNS? I setup ns1.(thedomainname).com and ns2 at godaddy where the domain is, is that correct?
