Topic: making my Twiggi mail client an open relay client

[Mark]

The reason I ask this is because I can't send mail through a wireless connection using the outgoing mail server address. Receiving is no problem at all.

The interesting part of the equation is I can send and receive perfectly fine within any LAN browser, just not via GPRS.

WHY????????????//

I am stump.

Please assist.

You can't send mail via GPRS because you're not on the safe side of your e-smith server. ( Unless you happen to have your own phone network and tower)
Have you tried tunnelling into your home network with PPTP and then trying to send email?
Anyone who tells you how to open relay your server should have their genitals removed with blunt bolt cutters.
Special pleasures should be arranged for you if you do it.
The world doesn't need any more voluntary spam relays. The chances that you'd be found, exploited and quickly blacklisted tends to suggest that your email sending abilities would be quickly curtailed anyway.

Andy thanks for the half witted answer.

You obviously did not understand half of what I ask for?
You CAN certainly send email securely via GPRS. Research in Motion has been doing it for years. It is called triple des encryption.

I send questions to this list with the hope to find knowledgeable answers not un educated gibber jabber.

The network and towers are a mode of transportation for data, if you know how to securely packet your data all is well.

The one thing you seem to understand is how spam works?
Funny thing eh!

My feeling is people like you are the problem, not the networks or towers.

By the way you should be ashamed to share the same name as a famous skateboarded.

Mark,

I can not give you the SME solution.... sorry. But I assume when accessing GPRS you do that through an ISP of sorts? Can't you use 'their' SMTP server to send the mail instead? I may be a noob at this but who knows I may have stumbled on an alternative for you. I would very much like to hear about any solution to your problem you can find. I intend to look into this kind of service for myself in the near future.

As for the previous 2 posts... well I do not want to get into this too much but neither posts are much appreciated.

Regards,

Jan

Jan that is a great idea, I will try to get the SMTP server address from my provider.

As for the first two posts, I completely agree.
Usually I refrain from even replying to such posts, this time however it struck a nerve, sorry to litter the boards with that garbage.

Mark

PS I will keep you posted on the outcome Jan. Continue to look for a posting with my results.

Well Mark, If you'd bothered to even read what I'd read, you'd have understood what I was actually telling you. I guess the other half of your wit hasn't realised that if you're using GPRS to send your mail, you are trying to access your server from the outside.
I never said anything about the inability to send mail via GPRS. Only yours.  
Triple DES has nothing to do with sending mail. Only encryption.
I will spell it out for you so that your limited understanding may comprehend something.
1. VPN to your lan via PPTP over your GPRS.
2. Your computer will appear to be on your local LAN.
3. Then you should be able to send mail via your e-smith mail server.

If you do not understand this, it is obvious where your problem is.
Not with encryption.
Not with GPRS.
Not with your server.
Not with skateboarding.
Somewhere between your keyboard and your chair.
You have 1D10T interference.
You share this problem with a lot of people.
