That's true, but what I'm saying is typically a SMTP server doesn't check say your "@RR" address versus what it's running, it only checks IP range. So you may very well be able to send email as yourself through your work SMTP server (IE: set your email client to check POP @ RR's server and send SMTP via work's server).

Actually, what happens is that when I get a message out to RR's SMTP server, I'll get an error code (forget the number) and an error message along the lines of "Sorry, you can't relay from there." I figured if I had a box on my home network which could send/receive emails from RR's SMTP server, I could write up an app which acts like a poor-man's hotmail. -V -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 2:50 PM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: OT Again: Relaying... Is it a question of sending email from work, or receiving it? You can use any valid SMTP server to send, even with your RR email account. I can't believe they'd limit your POP access based on IP range. If work is basing their valid SMTP range on IP also, you should be able to send as [EMAIL PROTECTED] even via your work SMTP server. If that's okay with work. -----Original Message----- From: Vinny DiDonato (si.rr) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 2:45 PM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: OT Again: Relaying... What I've been thinking of doing is utilizing CFPOP or some ASP equivalent on my home box so I can write a web-based interface to send mail from when I'm at work. My ISP (RoadRunner) doesn't allow mail from any IPs/subnets outside of their own. Otherwise I use web-based email like hotmail or linuxmail (which doesn't seem to work anymore :( ) As if I don't have enough work to do. -V -----Original Message----- From: Beth F [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 2:39 PM To: CF-Community Subject: OT Again: Relaying... how do you folks deal with email relaying blocking at your sites. our email admin of course has email relaying blocked, so I can't send any messages outside the firewall from CF. ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
