Hiya, Can you telnet to port 25 on the MS machine and send mail 'manually'? HELO MAIL FROM: RCPT TO: DATA etc This may shed more light on your problem... Ian -----Original Message----- From: Cameron Childress [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 August 2001 15:38 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CFMAIL and MS SMTP Yes, it's set to relay for CF's IP range. I've also tried allowing "everyone" to send through the server to see if it was a relay issue. I wouldn't expect it to accept the sender and recipient if it were a relay issue. I wouldn't expect it to accept the connection at all, but it is. It just won't take the data... I am also getting messages like this: 19:32:15 130.205.XXX.XXX MAIL FROM - 250 19:32:15 130.205.XXX.XXX RCPT TO - 250 19:32:15 130.205.XXX.XXX DATA - 554 19:32:15 130.205.XXX.XXX QUIT - 0 554 is an error code saying that the message wasn't accepted, but it doesn't give any reason as to why in the logs.
