Your ISP is blocking outbound SMTP connections. You need to use your ISP's mail server for outbound email.

[SPoTTeD]

In the server manager under email settings/Address of Internet provider's mail server I filled in the smtp server of the ISP. So that shoulnd't be the problem or am i wrong?

If you've done that and qmail cannot establish an SMTP connection, then your ISP's mail server is down or you've entered the wrong address for it.

[SPoTTeD]

Strange because I entered the wright smtp server and he isn't down because I use it now directly for sending email.

this is the mail server I entered smtp.orange.nl.

Can I check this elsewhere in a log file maybe ?

[mmccarn]

Does your ISP's SMTP server require authentication?

[SPoTTeD]

Nope, it is the same isp which i access to go on the internet.

The strange thing is that I now can't receive any mail anymore through fetchmail.

The strange thing is that I now can't receive any mail anymore through fetchmail.

same problem here since last fetchmail upgrade to 6.2.5-6.el4.5

back to previous version (6.2.5-6.el4.2) and everything it's working again

At the moment I have 6.2.5-6.el4.2 so that's not my problem

I use fetchmail!

[SPoTTeD]

I was so fed up with this problem that I did a clean install.

But the problem still exists. I can't send email through the sme server but I can send email directly (from a winxp computer) through the same isp smtp server. What could be wrong? It used to work!!

A ping to that server result in this:
PING smtp.orange.nl (193.252.23.135) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- smtp.orange.nl ping statistics ---
645 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 643905ms

A ping to www.orange.nl results in:
[root@woody ~]# ping www.orange.nl

I was so fed up with this problem that I did a clean install.

But the problem still exists.

That's not surprising. You haven't diagnosed and fixed the problem.

I can't send email through the sme server but I can send email directly (from a winxp computer) through the same isp smtp server. What could be wrong?

qmail could not establish an SMTP connection. You need to find out where it was trying to connect to, and why it can't connect there. ping doesn't tell you anything useful.

If you want someone to help you, you'll need to provide a fuller description of how you have your system configured and connected to the Internet.

I have dsl account and my sme server is connected through a switch on my dsl modem. My win xp computer is connected on the same way and can connect to smtp.orange.nl.

Futher on I didn't make other settings. I just did a clean install, install the updates and filled in the smtp server in server panel.

thx in advance for your help!

I don't know how you could have multiple computers connected via a switch and dsl modem. Perhaps you have a router/firewall there.

and can connect to smtp.orange.nl.

What do you see when you log onto the server as root, and type:

telnet smtp.orange.nl 25

?

How about:

telnet smtp1.google.com 25

?
