Solved Zimbra installation and configuration (internal use only)
-

@scottalanmiller ok i haven't set the MX Record yet.can you help on that please
Okay, have to start there as Zimbra demands that it be in place even for local email delivery.
How is your DNS for your internal domain handled? For us, our email domain still is public, so it is a public DNS that we need to modify. Is the domain that you are emailing one that is public, or just a fake, internal one?

Then on your main DNS host, you will need to make an MX entry that points to your new Zimbra server.

What DNS host do you have?
Also, the hostname issue is probably the bigger one. What are your settings there?
-
Like i need to add MX Record in my Active Directory DNS Manager ??

No, Windows DNS (there is no AD DNS) is for your local domain, not your public one.

He just rebuilt fresh, so we are starting from scratch.
-
Check your running services and make sure that all is well...
-
Then look here to see the mail queues.
-
i cant see any mail queue...

Check to see if the email that you sent was delivered.
-
So an email did not go through, but nothing is in the queue? That's really strange. That suggests that the server reached out and sent the email elsewhere.
What is the last ~50 lines in /var/log/maillog

I think that you may need to edit your /etc/hosts file...
Your local IP address and hostname and FQDN to the first line and remove any other references to your host name.

example :
192.168.1.2 mail.example.com mailcorrect??
