Relay Denied to Hotmail Addresses
« on: January 03, 2001, 12:46:59 PM »
I can't send mail to Hotmail addresses...and probably many others.  

I get an error saying that e-smith won't relay for me.  Isn't that the purpose of an smtp server-to send mail?

This is annoying.  I am supposed to tell my users that they just can't send to certain addresses because e-smith doesn't like them?

I can send to my own personal domain...and to many others.  I don't see what the problem is.

Please help...

e-smith will relay for "internal" network just fine, but if it thinks you are on an external network it will only let you send to your own domain.  

So if your users can not send mail out thru the e-smith then it thinks they are on an external network.  check your network settings or add another network to the internal networks page on the e-smith-manager
