Re: (OT) ISP's that don't allow relaying



Hi
 
Just install postfix or some other simple smtp server so you won't be depended on your isp. You should use one of the free webmail services with a forwarding option so you can get your mail to a permanent address and always forwarded to your current one. CHAVAL AL HAKESEF !!!

Subject: (OT) ISP's that don't allow relaying

Hi,

I am using several ISPs but over the years I got used to using one email box at actcom, a few months ago I canceled

My dial-up account there but I bought an "Email-only" account, which most isp's offer, just to have my old regular email address.

While trying to send mail, I always get a "Relaying is not allowed" Message, I sent an email to their support team, and their answer

Was that an Email-only account is only for GETTING mail, if you want to Sent mail you must use a different Smtp by a different ISP.

Then I Found out most isps don’t allow relaying, so I wondered, why isps offer mailbox's anyway? Shouldn’t they find a solution for smtp?

 

Is there a way to allow only certain users Relaying?
