I can't connect to mail client like Thunderbird or on my android mail. I got a connection time out. The mail works fine on the web.

@minaeid90 Looks like a firewall issue...

@minaeid90

Do you still have the issue ?

If it is ok, can you close this issue ?

Seems to be an issue with SMTP authentication.

IMAP authentication seems to validate on android devices (Specifically using Boxer Mail) however SMTP doesn't appear to authenticate.

Okay found a solution to the issue. Turns out I was able to connect with one of my domains.

I had to duplicate the autoconfig.domain.com nginx config for the other domains. Following that I had to duplicate the mail.domain.com nginx config for the other domains.

I then had to add the other domains to the ALLOWED_HOSTS section of /srv/modoboa/instance/instance/settings.py

This essentially resolves a few issues. Firstly the autoconfig/autodiscover for third party clients (android mail, thunderbird etc) and the webmail access for other domains.
