Yes, I could chose whatever email addresses I like <g>. My
ISP (Telkomnet Instant) isn't conventional, but rather an
extra "feature" provided by our telco. I don't have any
unique "by-subscription" PPP account or the like. To access
the net, I just call a 0-809 special number, then logged in
with an universal PPP account. The internet usage is billed
to my phone bill.

Then your SMTP server is not authenticated by accessing the
POP3 server. Just one question: Do you access it from the
*same* ISP? If not, then you're an outsider, and the SMTP
server is acted as a closed-relay MX (Mail eXchanger). It
will only accept incoming mail, and won't forward to another
server.

Looks like you trying to use Onetel's mail server from an RTM1
account ? Is Onetel a public mail provider? Some free email
are POPable, but has no SMTP support; the only way to send is
by using their web-based mail interface.

This means that the address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is accepted
as destination, your message will be delivered to this addresss.

> 550 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Relaying denied
Because you use Onetel SMTP server from an "outsider" account,
this server only act as a receiver. Domains other than Onetel
won't be accepted. Your message will never reach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

This really meant for the Onetel address, not VRZA.

Just a Qmail (the mail server) session ID I guess. Mail clients
only see the first "+" or "+OK" (and "-" or "-ERR" respectively
in case of error), the rest are ignored.
