Hi Sabahattin, I'd very much appreciate the chance just to check that my machine is actually working on another smtp server while I wait for the fix that Dean has mentioned on here. What do I need to do as far as you are concerned to try this? Many thanks for your kind offer!
Cheers.

I've checked all details for my connection etc and > all the fields of the mail look ok, so what's error 501 caused by? I'm not a PK user. Error 501 is produced by your SMTP service. It means "Syntax error in parameters or arguments" - see RFC 2821 section 4.2.2 or 4.2.3. So, the issue is with what your PK is sending to your SMTP service. About the only things I can suggest are to heed Dean's message and make sure the email address in both your account setup and in the "To:" field of your message (i.e. the one you type the recipient email address into) are absolutely correct (although this is a last suggestion since neither error is responsible for the 501 error condition). If you need the use of a relay SMTP service as a workaround as suggested by Dean, assuming it resolves your issue, let me know and I'll be more than happy to provide one. You will need to establish a username and password with me (off-list) which you can then use to authenticate your submissions through my service.
