Past a certain point, running a mail server requires a certain amount of
understanding; it's not a "fire and forget" service.

You need to read the first few chapters of the specification and find
someone local to you, to mentor you in problem debugging and diagnosis.

There are limits to what can be done via a mailing-list and limits to
how much time remote volunteers are likely to spend on one person's
problems, especially if that person does not at least appear to be
putting in work to understand for themselves what's happening and
thinking through the issues.

I've reached my limit in this case.

Someone else might be prepared to help you further.
