It always seems to happen with Thunderbird on Windows systems. I

Hi Maxwell,
following your description this is not a authentification problem but rather a
DNS or configuration issue.
Did you set the correct servername for outgoing mails in Thunderbird?
Is the protocol (smtp, submission) open on your (outgoing) firewall?
Cannot connect to server is far before
I can connect from the same network using a Linux box. I can also
connect to the server from the windows box using webmail, which means
the DNS is working correctly.

You can install it from qtp-menu (qtp-install-spamdyke script). You'll
need to restart qmail afterwards to make it effective (turn it on). Be

Looks like it might work. Some of the time. It's not 100%, as you might
get dups when the hash file rolls over. It's sort of crude, but might
meet your objective.

I'm fairly sure that 5.5 will fix your problem. I believe that it has
domain limit capability as well. It will certainly be 2-3 months or so
before it's ready for production though.

OK, moving any FSMO roles won't have anything to do with your problem then.
The Domain Naming master also doesn't have anything to do with DNS. It's
