Since I've been playing with telneting into James recently, I've experienced this. After you HELO when you do the MAIL FROM: or RCPT TO: you _must_ put the name inside <> so a typical session might look like this
HELO james.com MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DATA If you neglect the <> you get that syntax error every time. Home this helps, Clint -----Original Message----- From: Phil Armour [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 7:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: trouble using the smtp sender. i am assuming that this is a config problem, but it might be a syntax problem.... when i connect to the smtpClient in java i get an exception when i try to set the from field. I also get the same 501 exception when i telnet into the smtp program and try to manually send an email. (note: i have no problem manually sending emails from other smtp clients.) My exception is this: sun.net.smtp.SmtpProtocolException: 501 Syntax error in parameters or arguments any thoughts on how I need to set James to accept regular smtp commands? thanks in advance, -phil -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
