I don't know why mail.pacbell.net lets me do this, but your advice worked perfectly. You just ended three days of googling on this subject.
Thank you very much, Dmitry -----Original Message----- From: Erik Espinoza [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, November 12, 2005 5:16 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] routing outbound mail through my ISP The QmailToaster doesn't allow for user/pass in the smtproutes. There is a patch but it is for a very old version of Qmail and is probably not going to be added to the QmailToaster proper. My suggestion to you is to put ":mail.pacbell.net" into /var/qmail/control/smtproutes. This mail server accepts all sbc addresses and doesn't require smtp auth.
