it sounds like you need to get a better understanding of the way smtp hosts behave. do you have a mail admin that you can talk to? as I think a couple of people have already hinted at, the smtp host will not let mail be sent to just anyone, otherwise spam would be rife. So, what they (generally) do, is (1) allow mail from people in the domain be sent to anyone, this is how mail normally works, but (2) dont let people from outside the domain send mail to anyone, but we need to allow incoming (mail to the same host/domain) mail - otherwise we wouldn't receive any mail.
I'd suggest doing some more reading on smtp unless the above is all very obvious to you... hth dim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Ge" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 7:28 PM Subject: [JBoss-user] Re: Questin with Mail Service-not solved yet and to dim > Thanks very much!
