Hi,
I don't know why, the qmail is rejected to send out the email, however, it does receive email from the internet, attached the cut and paste snapshot for advise...

Subject: failure notice
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at plab.ath.cx.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
:
202.188.95.25 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.7.1 Relaying not allowed: nickm@yahoo.com
Giving up on 202.188.95.25.
Thank you.

It looks like your problem is with 202.188.95.25--who (or what) is that server? Whatever it is, it's not allowing you to relay.

Hi,
I tried to send out email msg to yahoo.com, hotmail.com etcetc, my best guess is something the sme server is blocking me to send out the msg...
Thank you.

So, I ask again, who runs 202.188.95.25? That's the server that is blocking your mail. Here's what I get on my box:
[dan@e-smith dan]$ host 202.188.95.25
25.95.188.202.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer smtp2.tm.net.my.
Now, I don't have any idea who tm.net.my is, but maybe you do. In any case, that's who's blocking your message, not the SME server.
-
smtp2.tm.net.my is my isp, how do i confirm that the isp is blocking my msg out?
strange!!! i have two sme servers running, both of them are pointed to the same isp gateway as well as the same configuration, however, my second server is allowed to send out the email.
Thank you.

You confirm that your ISP is blocking the mail by reading the message you posted to begin this thread: it's the system that's returning the error message.
Why are you using your ISP's mail server at all?
-
after removed the "smtp2.tm.net.my" inside the sme server, then, i am able now to send out the email, what does it make any differences if you do or don't specify it? is it necessary to provide it for the dialup user???
Thank you.

When you specify an SMTP server, the SME sends using that. If you don't specify one, SME uses its own SMTP server. If you're on dialup, you may run into some issues using your own because some of the RBLs also keep track of and block dialup IPs. That's the only issue though...

The only issue unless:
- You enter the wrong SMTP server
or
- Your ISP's SMTP server is not correctly configured
In either case it is possible to get the "relaying denied" message. Moral of the tale is - check your ISP's documentation carefully, and talk to your ISP if you still have a problem.

Hi,
This is correct the isp SMTP server, i have tested and confirmed the smtp is working in the normal email client such as like the outlook express.
On the other side, my second sme server is working with this same provider smtp server.
Thank you.
