  • I need to open port 587 for SMTP.

Hello,
I'm using WordOps 3.11.2, and I can't open port 587.
I have a site in Wordpress that uses Contact Form, and when I disable the firewall (csf -f), the contact form works fine.
When I enable firewall, contact form stop working.
I change the setting in CSF.CONF, but nothing works.
My droplet is at DigitalOcean, and the support couldn't help me. :
Does anyone know what happens?
Regards.

I tried these commands:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 587 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 587 -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

And also this one: sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 587 -j ACCEPT

Did the DO support mention they have open port 587 for you?

Most service provider block Outgoing SMTP port to avoid SPAM.

    CSF is not part of WordOps stack. We can't help with software we don't know.

      portofacil So... I just installed WO stack, nothing more.

      If it didn't came with WO, I have no idea how did it come.

      Can you help me?

      If I uninstall CSF, is there a firewall in the WO?

      Regards.

        Faizi Yes, as I told before, when I disable the firewall, the messages works fine.

        I'm not clear..you're asking for support for software that isn't from WordOps. WordOps also does not support email services, there are dozens of tutorials that can walk you through how to set it up if you need it.

        I recommend you reach out to DigitalOcean, as this is more on them if you need help with the port. Completely unrelated to WordOps.
