How do I configure a working email server using Webuzo? The documentation is non-existent. I've stumbled my way through every other hurdle between me and moving from a shared host to a VPS, but the email is going to be a deal breaker.

Hi, when you add a domain you have the relatice chek box for configure SPF and DKIM records. Be sure to have also a DMARC record. You can made search on Google about this three records if you need help.
Webuzo add the record if you are using the BING inside Webuzo. Maybe DMARC record is not added, please check. If the needed record are not present you need add manually.
You can test your email score and see what issue do you have on the website https://www.mail-tester.com/ ... you should have 3 free test every 24 hours.

That's the least of my worries. I can't even log into Rainloop because it can't connect to the server. I have Dovecot installed. How do I get an email server running?

I've got Exim installed and Dovecot installed. I set up an email address as per the official instructions. When I go to log into Rainloop from the admin panel the indicator spins for a long time and then says "Can't connect to server."

They need much better documentation. I'm not going to become a premium member if I can't use the software effectively. I'm on a trial.

With the help of support I got it figured out! Open /usr/local/webuzo/enduser/webuzo/rainloop/data/_data_/_default_/domains/[domain_name].ini in your favorite text editor and replace:

imap_host = "993"

with:

imap_host = 143

imap_secure = "SSL"
with:
imap_secure = "None"
smtp_port = 465
with:
smtp_port = 25
and
smtp_secure = "SSL"
with:
smtp_secure = "None"
I hope that helps someone!  :xd:

The above method disables encryption, which is not good. A simpler way to fix the problem (for CentOS 7 at least) is to open ports 465 and 993 on your server using the commands:

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=465/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=993/tcpsudo firewall-cmd --reload
This method keeps SSL encryption for your emails. Encryption is good.

I believe you are right, i never suggest to use unencrypted email.Great solution... i was forget maybe the port can be closed on Centos. Hope your issue was resolved.
I always ask to Webuzo team to stay secure and keep software safe. They really suggested to use the settings you mentioned? I believe this is an error.

They need to add ports 465 and 993 to the list of ports you need to have open on the install instructions at:
https://www.webuzo.com/docs/installation/install#requirements
That was a frustrating bit of trouble that could have been avoided. Works better than cPanel now! Nicer price too!

I am happy with Webuzo and when there is an issue they are always available to find a solution.

I am sure they will consider to add informations about opening port on the guide. You are free to choose the panel that's is more near your needs.
Thank you for posting in the forum :)
