RE: [IMail Forum] Relay Problems

do you have "disable smtp auth reporting" enabled in smtp securty?  This will prevent users for being able to smtp authenticate.     This is nornally checked off to allow netscape users to log on (netscape by default sends smtp authentication with every log in so this must be checked off for netscape users to use Imail)  -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 10, 2001 1:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Relay Problems > Those "local" options mean that IMail will only send mail with a return > address that is from a local domain or user.  But, lots of spammers will > use addresses (made-up, usually) from your domains when sending their > spam.  So the "local" options let spam through. That's exactly what I'm worried about, but when I try and set (in OE) "My server requires authentication" to on, and set the settings to "Use same setting as my incoming mail server" I can't send mail, it always refuses either the login name or password.  I'm running: Win2K Advanced with SP2 Imail 6.06 with all the patches Here's a copy of the section out of the log file: 20010908 212639 127.0.0.1       SMTPD (0040030A) [**.***.**.***] EHLO Mike 20010908 212639 127.0.0.1       SMTPD (00000494) FAILED authentication [EMAIL PROTECTED] 20010908 212641 127.0.0.1       SMTPD (0041030A) [**.**.***.***] connect **.***.**.*** port 2944 The main database used is the Imail DB, one host uses SQL.  I thought it was because of the SQL, but it's also happening to hosts that use the Imail DB.
