What is exactly the message you receive? There is more after the 550...

To use your ISP SMTP for delivery you use the <gateway> configuration in the RemoteDelivery mailet.

To send an email to james from linux you can try using the python scripts you find here:

Hi everybody. Sorry for the obscure subject but hopefully you will understand 
it in a minute. First though some background.

I have a Linux Fedora Core 5 box, with James 2.3.0. I have set up a mailing 
list and there is an automatic process that runs every day on the Linux box and 
sends an email to the mailing list if necessary. Lately some recipients are not 
receiving the emails and I receive an email back from James saying that it 
couldn't deliver the email becuase of error 550.

Although I have bought the domain troccoli.it I do not have a fixed IP address. 
Being at home I have an account with one ISP, and the dynamic IP assigned by 
the ISP is shared between the Web/Mail Server (the Linux box) and my laptop. 
Outlook Express on my laptop is set to retrieve the emails from troccoli.it but 
to send emails using my ISP. Everything is fine on my laptop.

I don't remember why (I think I ran into some problems) I do not use James as 
SMTP from my laptop, but I must have thought that for the same reason I 
couldn't use it for the mailing list either.

So, in that script that automatically sends emails, I use sendmail which seemed 
to do the job (only lately I am experiencing the error 550 problem). Because 
troccoli.it is not a known domain I think it might have been black listed or 
something. Also because I don't have a fixed IP address I cannot authenticate 
the origin of the email for the mailing list (I'm thinking of something like 
Sender Id).

If everything I said so far makes sense, then maybe you can help me. How can I 
set James up so that:
    a) I can James in that script I was talking about
    b) I can use my ISP as SMTP in James

Thanks
Giulio
