E-mail Sending Problems

[Munnin]

Ok, I set up a series of e-mail boxes for a site.

 

pop: mail.xigenics.net

smtp: mail.xigenics.net

 

He has tried both port 25 and port 26 and not had any luck sending mail but can recieve it.

 

any advice?

try checking "my server requires authentication" in the account properties

 

Also his ISP may not allow you to send mail through a server that isnt theirs, try using the ISP's SMTP server.

OK I am no longer at work and so no longer behind a fire wall and can try this my self.

 

I have tried setting the client to use regular SMTP pasword athunitication.

 

using: mail.myserver.net on port 25 the connection times out.

using: myserver.net on port 25 the connection times out.

using: 69.50.193.27 on port 25 the connection times out.

 

While I can use my providers SMTP server his provider does not supply one so I am sure it must be allowed for him.

 

FIXED

 

Needed to use port 26 and alter teh usename to use @ sign even though the plus sign worked fine with the pop server.
