Topic: SMTP Error 553

[Simon Vetterli]

Hi.. I just had qmail setup and everything works fine. I am able to receive mails fromt he mail account I set up. However, when I try to send mails with the account that I setup, I get an error msg.
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'abc@hotmail.com'.
Subject 'TEST!!!',
Account: 'my-mail',
Server: 'my-mail-server', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

(I replaced my real email in my server with "my-mail" and server's smtp with "my-mail-server" for confidentiality reasons. I tried and added "hotmail.com" in rcpthosts and I was able to send mail to hotmail.com but that doesn't sound logical. AM I supposed to add entries ofr every possible domain in the world so me or my users can send mails from our account on my mailserver? Please help.
Thank You.
