Thanks.. that makes sense! I should have thought more about it..
I was sending to a valid local address.. when I changed to a nonlocal
address:
<<<getline<<< 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN
<<<getline<<< 250 AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN
>>>putline>>> MAIL FROM: <me.at>
<<<getline<<< 250 Sender <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OK
>>>putline>>> RCPT TO: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<<<getline<<< 530 Authentication Required
The SMTP server does not like the name [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Have you set the 'To:' field correctly, or do you need authorization (-u/-pw) ?
The SMTP server response was -> 530 Authentication Required
>>>putline>>> QUIT
<<<getline<<< 221 Closing connection. Good bye.


thanks again all  -- Jay

I have <authRequired>true</authRequired> , but noticed when using a trace, that when trying to send via blat through my james server, there is no AUTH requested. The log in part is:

<<<getline<<< 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN
<<<getline<<< 250 AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN

putline>>> MAIL FROM: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

<<<getline<<< 250 Sender <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OK

I would have expected james to request a valide auth login and password..

Have I missed something?


Yes: the Auth is checked after the "RCPT TO:". Any sender "MAIL FROM:" could
send to a local recipient without authentication.

The AUTH is only need to RELAY, not to send local mail.
