Set your $mailhost in your codestriker.conf to the fully qualified name of the SMTP server you need to connect to. At the moment, it looks like it is set to localhost. > The guy said that the SMTP message should either be authenticated or > come from a known host.

What is the best solution to this? I've never seen this issue... but it sounds to me that you will need to use SMTP authentication if the above doesn't make a difference. Why don't you want to do this? Quite a few people have set this up without issue. Cheers, David ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
