Xtra is just evil in my opinion. I've had lots of problems sending bulk emails - they have spam rules in place but won't let on as to what they are, lest the real spammers find out and work around them.

I use XTRA's Secure Remote Email service and am trying to use an Indy TIdSMTP component (BDS2006, Indy 10.1.5) to send an email message via XTRA's smtp server. This server (smtpr.xtra.co.nz) requires user authentication and SSL to send through it.

I can send messages to myself or my colleagues who also have xtra mailboxes, but if I try to send to a non-XTRA mailbox I get an EIdSMTPReplyError exception, with code 550 reported i.e. "Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable", so I guess XTRA has tightened up its security and is now assuming I am a spammer and is blocking me since this used to work fine.

Has anyone managed to work out the combinations of properties for a TIdSMTP & associated TIdSSLIOHandlerSocketOpenSSL component (since the Secure Remote service requires SSL) and TIdMessage that will work with XTRA?

I've tried pretending to be Outlook 2003 (my normal mail client) by setting TIdSMTP.MailAgent to "Microsoft Office Outlook 11" etc which didn't work (this sets the X-Mailer header). Other settings I'm using with TIdSMTP:

AuthType = atDefault
Host = smtpr.xtra.co.nz
Port = 465
UseEhlo = true

Plus my Username and Password of course.

John
