I honestly don't know if the J2EE or OpenBD service needs to be restarted - when editing the xml directly vs the administrator - to get your changes enacted...

I also tried looking back through this thread on the web (I'm not at home, where all my pop3 emails from this list are stored), and can not find where you stated the version and release of OpenBD you are running.

Knowing what software your MTA is running (Sendmail, Postfix, etc) might help Matt or Alan think of something. I can see some chatter out there regarding some Sendmail settings against this Java object, for example.

This seems odd to me. If there was a fundamental bug in connecting one's CF server to an email MTA, I would think there would be a lot of noise over that. That's why I think more version and platform details might help. If you've already provided that earlier, I'm sorry.

Alan,

I removed the ":25" as specified and tried again.
The conf file now has the following entry:

<cfmail>
<usetls>false</usetls>
<interval>240</interval>
<charset>UTF-8</charset>
<domain>dev4.domain.com</domain>
<smtpport>25</smtpport>
<smtpserver>1.2.3.4</smtpserver> <!--- false IP for posting --->
<timeout>60</timeout>
<usessl>false</usessl>
<threads>1</threads>
<catchemail></catchemail>

Same error message.

Your node for smtpserver has both the IP and port.
Is that how your real setup is configured too?

If so, remove the :25 from <smtpserver>

That's already specified in <smtpport>

Then try again.

Alan,

Sorry for the late delay on the follow up to this. I really appreciate
all the input that has been given.

Prior to my posting the initial request here ... I have tried all the following
(I apologize if i did not communicate this clearly the first post):

1. When I verify the mail server in the BD admin console the error message is displayed as: "Mail server verification failed: 501 5.0.0 HELO requires domain address"
1A - mail will not send from an application using CFMAIL
2. I can telnet to the mail server from the Open BD server
2A - I can issue a HELO with IP address - good response
2B - I can issue a HELO with hostname (as returned by hostname cmd) - good response
2C - I can issue a HELO with the FQDN - good response
2D - I can issue a HELO with 'localhost' - good response
2E - I can issue a HELO *without* any parameters - BAD response **Same error msg that the BD admin console gives me


Based on my testing described in 2 above, I am under the belief that the
BD server does not include the hostname in the HELO command. I know this
cannot be true for majority of folks so I am trying to determine what BD would submit as "hostname" and if there is some configuration I have missed/or performed
incorrectly.

Further info - the mail server is my mail server. It is on a different network segment but all other ACF servers on the same network segment as the OpenBD server can verify and send mail. The mail server is setup to relay from my development network segment, and again, does so properly for the other Adobe CF servers located
there.

Matt had asked for the bluedragon.xml particulars of the mail conf... first I found my bluedragon.xml in the following directory: /opt/openbd/conf/ and NOT in
WEB-INF/ as indicated in his email.

<cfmail>
<usetls>false</usetls>
<interval>240</interval>
<charset>UTF-8</charset>
<domain>dev4.domain.com</domain>
<smtpport>25</smtpport>
<smtpserver>1.2.3.4:25</smtpserver> <!--- false IP for posting --->
<timeout>60</timeout>
<usessl>false</usessl>
<threads>1</threads>
<catchemail></catchemail>
</cfmail>

Any help is greatly appreciated and if you need further information please
let me know.

Thanks,
