It's probably the client side with the problem. The ip's in the tcp.smtp file are the ip's outside the company that you want to allow to relay mail through your server.
I'm assuming the problem is as follows. External Client A from outside has email configured to relay through your server, so in Outlook outgoing smtp server = your mail server. However client a's ip address is not in tcp.smtp and they are not using smtp server with authentication. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that's roughly the problem you are running into. do you get the same error when you email from say hotmail? What is the exact bounce message? Also what do the logs files say at the time mail is sent? tail /var/log/maillog tail /var/log/qmail/smtp/current -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 May 2007 11:32 To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: RE: [qmailtoaster] rcpthosts file Hi, I have all the company IPs in tcp.smtp and it looks to work fine but the problem is from outside the company. I use authentication for this [EMAIL PROTECTED] user with /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw on /var/qmail/supervise/smtp/run and /var/qmail/supervise/pop3/run. This user exists in the vpopmail database so I guess it is there where the vchkpw program looks when it needs to authenticate a user connecting from outside. Right? If this is right why I can not connect yet?
