In the Bad mail Que? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: lost in relay problem Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2003 07:59:34 -0700 Ok thats makes sense, sorry been pulling hair my hair out. But this leads me to another question, then email doesnt deliver to the external source. which is good. but it still hits my server and gets into the ques. This morning I came in and there were 26,000 NDR's waiting in the que. Which clogged the thing up and needed a boot so normal traffic could get going. Its become a constant babysitting problem. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Winzenz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2003 7:51 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: lost in relay problem Eric, think about this for a minute. You are using an external host to send TO YOURSELF. Of course it is going to work. Your main server will accept ANY e-mail from ANYONE that is destined FOR your e-mail address. What you need to do to test it is re-read the instructions. It says quite clearly that that recipient should NOT be an address which the server accepts (I.e don't use your address). It should be an third party address, such as a hotmail address. Try it again.

I MUST be missing something or just plai stupid, time to quit and go flip burgers. We have a mail server that is 5.5 smtp bridgehead ( 12.10.133.30 ) and in routing restrictions have hosts and clients checked. Using the following test http://members.iinet.net.au/~remmie/relay/ when i send it to myself [EMAIL PROTECTED] it WORKS and the email gets to me with the following... <<< 220 postoffice02.aruplab.com ESMTP Server (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service 5.5.2653.13) ready >>>> HELO staff.iinet.net.au <<< 250 OK To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>> MAIL FROM: <<< 250 OK - mail from >>>> RCPT TO: <<< 250 OK - Recipient >>>> DATA <<< 354 Send data. End with CRLF.CRLF >>>> MESSAGE <<< 250 OK SUCCESS Relay Accepted - final response code 250 Now if i change the TO address to a generic [EMAIL PROTECTED] address that I have setup, some other smtp recipent then my own it fails 5 times then suddenly works on the 6th, however the mail doesnt ever deliver. per the follwing... +5 of these To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<< 250 OK - Reset >>>> MAIL FROM: <<< 250 OK - mail from >>>> RCPT TO: <<< 550 Relaying is prohibited To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <<< 250 OK - Reset >>>> MAIL FROM: <<< 250 OK - mail from >>>> RCPT TO: <<< 250 OK - Recipient >>>> DATA <<< 354 Send data. End with CRLF.CRLF >>>> MESSAGE <<< 250 OK SUCCESS In senario 2 I dont see how it can do a RCPT TO: and 550 - to - RCPT TO: 250 OK - Recipent. SO I AM CONFUSED ALL TO HELL. Is it like "try this five times and on six it will work? And even if in senario 2 sending it to another server it never delivers doesnt it still sit on my server and eat up cpu/memory/disk? In senario 1 if the message is "relayed" to my server and to my clients it works right off the bat??!! i dont see how that is denying relaying? Doesnt that just open a huge window for asia-pacifica to spam my clients? Is there a way to plug this? sorry but i've made this so complex in my head it hurts. much thanks e- _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ >From the hottest toys to tips on keeping fit this winter, you'll find a range of helpful holiday info here. http://special.msn.com/network/happyholidays.armx _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
