Re: Can't send mail
Hi, Robin, Thanks for the ideas -- my responses interleaved. Suddenly, I can receive mail but not send it--any of it, from any of my three accounts. The message I get is Did not send message--server relaying denied. Of my three accounts, one is forwarded from a Web-based mail (fastmail, which is why I can send this--thru the Web interface); but none of the three can send. I've checked all the settings and they're all correct. It sounds as though your SMTP servers (the ones for sending mail) do not like to accept mail from wherever it is you are connecting from. Have you changed your connection to the Internet? You will usually get that message if you are connected to the Internet through one ISP, and try to use the SMTP server of another. ISP is still the same and the connection is still the same. The Web mail SMTP is its messaging engine and the local account SMTP is the ISP's POP server. Neither will send. AFAIK, the ISP hasn't changed any of its servers (or it should have let me know). I've asked their tech support, and get the usual You're using *what*? Never heard of it! Another possibility is that your SMTP server will only send mail if you have authenticated by receiving mail first. See if setting Use POP before SMTP authentication is set, and if not try this (Account - Properties - Transport - Send mail authentication). I tried this and didn't have any success. I'm just buffaloed and very frustrated. Anyone have any further thoughts? -- Anna Lawson Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Can't send mail thru TB
Hi, Marck, Leif, and all y'all, I've been gone a long time, but as they say, I'm ba-a-ack. I've got the new version of TB! and it's been working just fine (for several months) until yesterday. Suddenly, I can receive mail but not send it--any of it, from any of my three accounts. The message I get is Did not send message--server relaying denied. Of my three accounts, one is forwarded from a Web-based mail (fastmail, which is why I can send this--thru the Web interface); but none of the three can send. I've checked all the settings and they're all correct. I've not changed any of my settings and TB! has free access through my firewall (ZoneAlarm--and this happens even when ZA is shut down). I'm using W2K Pro (no change there). I've experienced this previously, but only intermittently--maybe once every few months, and then closing the program and opening it again usually fixed it. I emailed bugs, though it's not really a bug, but didn't receive any response. This time, closing, re-opening, and even re-booting makes no difference: I just can't send mail. I've looked through the archives and not found anything applicable, but I'd be surprised if somewhere in the list expertise, someone hasn't seen this before. I hope so, because my livelihood depends on email! :) Any advice will be most gratefully accepted, and may all your spaghetti have good meatballs!
