Thanks Everybody I configured the relayhost entry in main.cf in /etc/postfix path as relayhost = [my service provider relay host] Thats all, I am able to send / recv email.
Next how do I make sure, my spam/antivirus filtering is working properly.... Is it that only maillog i cam check, or is there any effective way of checking it.
Thanks -Austin

Thanks John By the way I checked with my service provider. Their ISP does not block 25. But to successfully deliver SMTP mail, I need to use their relay server (it uses port 25 only).
Where will I configure their relay server . Is it in /etc/postfix/main.cfor any other file. Do I need to modify anyting in dovecot or amavisd configuration???
Thanks Austin

Some ISP's block port 25 if it is a 'home' type connection. Comcast recently started blocking and I can't connect there from home either.
configure your mail server to use your ISP's mail server as a 'smarthost', OR configure it to use an external (coloc or whatever) server as smarthost via port 587 with authentication.
