Relaying for logged in users is enabled by default in Courier with ESMTP authentication. > On Fri, 7 Mar 2003, Dave Duncan wrote: > > > > Hello, I am using the Courier MTA with its associated Esmtp and > > POP3 modules.

If the error is "no route to host", it doesn't sound like a relaying issue. It sounds like an IP routing problem. Your system doesn't know how to get to the MX. Check the contents of esmtproutes to see if you are sending the mail somewhere besides the MX for the domain. See if you can ping the MX.
