Re: [Evolution] Failed to send: relaying denied

[Carr Wilkerson]

Thank you. I looked again at the ISP support page. They have never and 
still don't require authentication for sending email. I tried it anyway 
(by configuring authentication) and still received the same message. 
This problem started when I had to hard reboot during a rare RH 8.0 
freeze. Evolution was open at the time. I thought that perhaps something 
was corrupted during this fault. Perhaps a reinstall might be in order. 
I really don't know where else to look. Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Looks like you SMTP server requires authentication. Check the 'server
requires authentication' box in the 'Sending Mail' dialog and enter your
login and password at the bottom of the dialog.
OR

Use a SMTP server that relays mail for you withoit authentication. ISP
usually let you send mail when you use their server from inside their
IP-range.
