Hello Everyone i am attempting to setup JAMES as an SMTP/POP3 server on my machine and i am running into obsatcles
The first question i have is am i using the correct product? I am looking for a product that will manage emails to and from a host.. for instance SMTP and POP3 requests from mail.myDomain.com .. I believe thats what JAMES is but i could be wrong.. It seems as if the process is get the configuration right, setup the users and than configure your email client as if it was any other mailserver.. and everything should work.. Am i correct in presuming this? With that said i am running into some issues.. I am running Windows 2000 utilizing NO-IP's plus service to give me DNS service to and from my machine..if i go out to www.dnsreport.com and type in my mail server (in this case mail.daveturner.info) it returns what i believe to be good information.. returns the associated IP Address.. tells me i got an MX Name..etc.. but if i type in a user that i succesfully created on my machine it states the following messages "Could not connect: Got an unknown RCPT TO response: 550 - Requested action not taken: relaying denied" AS WELL as the mailserver information so i believe the server is OK but theres something straneg about the users. I set up the user by the documented method of telneting to the server at port 4555 and running the adduser command.. That seems to have worked succesfully because there is a folder at var/mail/inboxes for the user name. is there a common step that i missed... The mail server seems to be good but theres an issue with the users? any help on this issue would be appreciated thanks, Dave
