Hi,

Did you try to deactivate ufw ?
ufw filter paquets from inside to outside ?
You can simply try a telnet command like :
telnet <SMTP server> <SMTP port, usually 25>

Did you take a look in your spam ?
Perhaps a rule on your SMTP server drop your mail ... Example : sender not from the same domain, ...

Hi,
yes very ...

2 others ideas:
1/ you can activate HG log in "configuration"->"maintenance", and take a look in log file
2/ launch a tcpdump command to confirm that HG contact your SMTP server.
Like :
tcpdump port 25

And test your SMTP configuration in telnet with the information you put in HG, with something like this :
