This means your provider wants you to authenticate using SMTP auth. You need a login and password (perhaps identical to your indial data). >From the exim documentation: [ http://www.exim.org/exim-html-3.30/doc/html/spec_19.html#SEC554 ] authenticate_hosts (smtp) Type: host list Default: unset This option is available only when Exim is built to contain support for at least one of the SMTP authentication mechanisms. It provides a list of servers to which, provided they announce authentication support, Exim will attempt to authenticate as a client when it connects. See chapter 35 for details. > On a separate case but using the same mail server, I also encounter > the following error when I try sending an email using Outlook (the > same email is successful if I use Yahoo!

It announces STARTTLS but then it fails.
