Hi

I am trying to install iRedmail on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04.4 Server installation.

After the review of the settings I get this:
The keyserver request times out.

What can I do to fix that?

The installtion seems to run ok when I add the key manually from ubuntu.com:

# gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv xxxxxxxxx

# gpg --export --armor 19CDA6A9810273C4 | sudo apt-key add -

It's a temporary network error. Manually import the key or run iRedMail installer again should fix it.
