HI Bowie,There is. Courier can allow clients to authorise themselves before permitting relay. You have to be careful how you turn it on; you don't want to *require* authorisation, because you don't want to prevent other people on the internet from sending email to your hosted domains. But it is pretty easy to tell courier to check authdaemond. You then just need to tell Outlook Express to log on (with appropriate user name and password) when sending messages.
think that this isn't really a kewl solution, even if it may work. the problem is that i'm often at some customers and therefore i don't know what ip adress i will have. this wouel result in opening all the ranges but that isn't what i want do to. isn't there another solution ?
I can't remember exactly what changes you will need to make to your configuration files, since I don't need to bother with this myself...
regards,
patrick

Ok, you're trying to send mail from outlook on a separate computer, so you'll need to give that computer relay access. By default Courier denies all attempts to relay mail through it.
Add the following line to your 'smtpaccess' file:
212.47.160.240 allow,RELAYCLIENT
(and I think the separator between the IP address and the options must be a tab)
That IP address should be the address for the machine running Outlook. You could also just specify the IP block (212.47.160), if you control the whole thing and want all of your machines to have relay access to the server.
I always just edit the config files on my server, but you should be able to do this through the webadmin as well. If you edit the file by hand, you will need to run 'makesmtpaccess' in order for the changes to take effect.

You need to list the domains under 'esmtpacceptmailfor' as well. I'm not sure where that option is in the webadmin, but it should be there somewhere.

hi all,
i just startet using courier and it works great. just one pronlem. i have multiple domains which i want to run on the same server. the problem now is that i receive the following log messages
Jan 13 18:33:37 furbyII courieresmtpd: error,relay=::ffff:212.47.160.250,from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: 513 Relaying denied.
in my opintion i configured it the right way, what means that i used the webadmin and i listet the domains under
Mail server name and local domains ->>Locally-hosted domains
there are now 4 domains.
strange thing is that i'm able to send/recived emails when i'm using the web frontend but when i want to use the Outlook express i only can receive emails.
do you have an idea what i should check ?
regards,
patrick
