Re: Outbound email fails via smtp

[Brady J. Frey]

Well, no dice, I reinstalled, downloaded multiple times, and I do not have a helo line anywhere, just my SMTP_CONN line... so I have no idea what I'm missing in my files. The irony being I got it to work on a Linux Shared hosting environment, but not on our personal servers with rather aggressive spam protection -- and that server's a dedicated in house web server, with the other mail server at a separate IP, so I'm sure you're onto something, but nothings working for me.

Our mail server saw this as a SPAM attempt in which the spammer was claiming to be localhost which is what they do many times.   To fix this, I did some digging in the code and found a file eventually named rcube_smtp.inc which is in the program/include directory.   I found this line: $helo_host = !empty($_SERVER['server_name']) ? $_SERVER['server_name'] : 'localhost';   and changed it to: $helo_host = !empty($_SERVER['server_name']) ? $_SERVER['server_name'] : 'roundcube.mydomain.com';   Where roundcube.mydomain.com is the full hostname of the server running the RoundCube code.   Hope this helps!   --Todd   -- Start Your Own Internet Service! http://www.YourOwnISP.com   ----- Original Message ----- From: Brady J.

Currently we're a Cyrus OS X server, with smtp, password authorization required for outbound sending of messages. Now, I get the %u/p parts, and I have it set to the proper smtp address... should I not just be using 'LOGIN' as the password protocal? I've essentially tried all, and none seem to work, I'm wondering if there's a different outbound preference I should put in there that I'm not seeing?
