I am running james v2.2.0. Am very new to this. I haven't enabled SMTP authentication. Using file repositories. Test account at localhost works fine. Problem occurs when I send mail to outside world. Log file shows
16/06/06 01:43:36 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Could not connect to SMTP host: 157.227.246.120, port: 25, response: -1 16/06/06 01:43:36 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Temporary exception delivering mail (Mail1150380219138-0-to-[domain].com: javax.mail.MessagingException: No mail server(s) available at this time. at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.deliver(RemoteDelivery.java:617) at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.run(RemoteDelivery.java:912) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534) I edited the domain name when posting. The domain name is being resolved properly. I dont know if the network admin has configured his DNS/MX (Am not clear abt these stuff) to allow me to send mail to external machines. These mails are getting stored in the "OUTGOING" folder. There is another thing happening. Log file snippet first. 16/06/06 01:20:03 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: No mail server found for: indiatimes.com 16/06/06 01:20:03 INFO James.Mailet: RemoteDelivery: Temporary exception delivering mail (Mail1150379084522-0-to-indiatimes.com: javax.mail.MessagingException: There are no DNS entries for the hostname indiatimes.com. I cannot determine where to send this message. at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.deliver(RemoteDelivery.java:398) at org.apache.james.transport.mailets.RemoteDelivery.run(RemoteDelivery.java:912) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534) This msg is a bit different from the previous one. This says it could not find the mail server. But that is precisely the server I am mailing from. Pls clarify. I am ready to learn more and go thru docs. Also can someone explain smtp authentication to me. At what stage, will i be prompted for username/password? I have configured outlook express to use James.
