SMTP security settings are currently set to "relay all mail" - when I first looked at them they were set to "relay mail only from:" with a box for ip addresses that was empty - I will check the ipswitch board as sudeep suggested.
 
Thanks for your response.

Your MX records look okay doing a dig on them.  The error
you are getting below is as if the IP address you are posting
from is not listed in the SMTP Security settings as allowed
to relay.
 
Check that first.

Pardon my greenness - we just got our dsl connection and I am now trying to get imail to talk to the rest of the world.  Current set up is as follows:
 
We are using our isp's dns servers.  The isp has filled out the mx record at his place to point to our internal ten net ip via our router - I think the router does the final address translation to the ten net ip.  When I try to send mail via the imail smtp server I get this error:
 
"The message could not be sent.....rejected by the server.  The rejected email address was ................, Server Response: 550 not local host.... not a gateway........"
 
If I send mail to the imail server via the isp's smtp server it does come back in - I need to test whether it will come in from another isp (send me a message at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want to help me test!!).
 
Some test messages that I sent earlier seem to have gotten thru - at least the header reports that the targer received it from our imail smtp server.....but now all is error.
 
So - any leads, hints, clues or outright solutions much appreciated!
