How do you send mail with it? I've played around with using Postfix and never had luck with the outbound mail side, largely because my ISP blocks port 25 and I couldn't ever figure out how to authenticate with public SMTP relays (like Gmail's, for instance) such that they will actually let me send emails from my domain.
the documentation for iRedmail covers your question. I abandoned trying to host locally because my ISP blocks all email related ports.
Can you point me to where it describes sending email? I can't seem to find that mentioned. When you say you abandoned trying to host locally, did you move to a more "traditional" public email service like Outlook or Gmail or did you continue selfhosting, just on a VPS or similar? If the latter, are there any services you recommend?
