PHP Mail - Not Receiving Any Emails

PHP Mail - Not Sending/Receiving Any Emails

I recently got a new dedicated private server from 1&1. It has the latest Plesk Panel (11.5.30). On all of my webpages hosted from the server, none of them can send emails. Whenever I test this from here http://championsfunding.com/contact-us, it says that it successfully sent the email but I receive no emails at all. Here's a test PHP mail script with more detailed information: http://championsfunding.com/mail_test.php. I added mail.log = /~username/mail_logs to PHP Settings in Custom View Settings but there is no logs. Any help would be appreciated.

Check Plesk maillog - /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog
 
I skimmed through the maillog and found no problems except
May 7 10:05:53 u17259487 qmail: 1399471553.284374 delivery 29: deferral: ./Maildir:_No_such_file_or_directory/
I created the Maildir in the root folder and still no emails.

Here's the log

Hi again,
some tips for the specific issue with PHP Mailer: in the firewall rules the port 25 must be open (SMTP (submission port) server and SMTP (mail sending) server) and the setting for SPF inbox email in the Plesk Panel:

"Tool&Settings" > "Server Mail Settings" > "Switch on SPF spam protection" temporary select: "Only create Receveid-SPF header, never block" or disable it.

Also check the SPF domain configuration and the reverse DNS (PTR) domain configuration.

I hope will help you.

Bye
