RE: No Transport Provider Available

[Mark Walsh]

I am using Linux solely as a firewall and Mail server.  Using QMAIL as the
sole mail server in the office.  No NT or exchange server.  We have an
AS/400 that is used solely within the company for order processing.  That is
the only other server.  All my clients are using the Outlook that came with
Office Pro 97.  And the Internet Mail is the transport that is loaded.

When someone sends a mail, it immediately returns with no transport
available.  I don't even see an error listed in the QMail or system logs.

Are you using qmail solely for mail or does it sit in front of an Exchange
server ?  What version of Outlook ?  What mail transport do you have loaded
in the individual MAPI profiles ?

I am using Outlook 2000 from my home into the office QMail server.  Have not
had a problem with the No Transport Provider Available.  The only time that
I can get it to occur is at the office.  I still tend to believe that it's
Outlook causing the problem.  Strange that 3-6 users are now experiencing
the same trouble at the same time.  Which makes me think that it may be my
config, Network Cards in my linux server, Internal wiring in the building or
QMAIl itself acting up.

hello Mark.
Ive been using outlook2000 and so do all my customers.. some use outlook
express, but NONE use eudora or netscape.
im "happy" to say, that we didnt encounter any problems sending or recieving
mail with them, other that the fact it gets sent to damn fast... :-)
im sorry for your problems, but it seems interesting that for me it works..
im sure others are also using micro$oft products and its working for them
aswell...
have you tried telneting to your server and manually enter the commands?
if this works, its defenetly something in your outlook config files... try a
new account, on a fresh install of outlook...

This realy should work...

I love to blame Microsoft for this problem as well.  It just seems funny
that it is now happening to more than one person in the company.  All of a
sudden, it's most of the people.  This is why I am starting to wonder if
it's my QMAIL system not accepting the mail for delivery all the time.

What are other people using for EMAil on Win9x systems?  Anything else
except Netscape?

Do you see that crap under the heading "Mail Server Expects Addresses
to Be in Angle Bracket?"  baahahaha.  You have to put angle brackets
in there in order for Outlook to use them when speaking SMTP.  What a
joke... and the rest is plain bull.  No wonder 7 out of 10 tech
support calls regarding email are outlook users (and we give our
customers a CD with Netscape.. that says something).

sorry for the rant!

No Transport Provider Available

[Mark Walsh]

I had someone put in a Linux Firewall with QMail as the Mail server.
Lately, I had lost their support and I am at a bit of a loss.  The
problem that I have is that most of my company is on Microsoft
Outlook.  Most or all of the employees are experiencing difficulties
in sending EMail.  They attempt to send email, either locally or
remotely and get the message

There is No Transport Provider Available.

Sometimes I can send mail, sometimes I can't.  I had removed The
Personal folders and accounts from individual computers and for a
time it seemed to repair it.  But now everyone is doing it?  I
starting to wonder if it is actually the QMAil.  Where Do I start
looking there?
