Yes, now I see, I did not have SMTP logging set to a level low enough to see
the complete error. I have two problems, one being that I am on the MAPS
DUL, which is probably an insurmountable one,
Given what I can snoop out, it probably is. As long as you are using IP addresses that look like dialups (i.e different people use them at different times) you belong on the various dynamic-address lists. AOL does not use MAPS as far as they have admitted, but for some time they have been compiling and using their own 'DUL' and using it on their mail servers.
Yeah, I was trying to enable my clients to do their own outbound SMTP as well as POP, but it looks like I will have to let their ISP handle the outbound SMTP and use SIMS for everything else. They are on a dynamic IP with an alleged "six-month lease" from Comcast, so I guess the MAPS DUL and other DULs consider the address range they are using to be dynamic.
Last I knew, Comcast expressly prohibited running mail (or any other) servers on any of their customer links, and submitted their addresses to MAPS for the DUL and to other DUL-like lists intentionally as a subsidiary means of enforcing their terms of service.
In other words: have your client read their contract again carefully before trying to handle their own mail on that link. They may well have bought service that expressly bans them from what you are trying to help them do.
