Please check your mail client settings Your mail client is attempting to send mail via a box that is configured to only relay mail that's been authenticated via user/password or whatever. Make sure your mail client is using the appropriate SMTP server. Also try setting "this mail server requires authentication" to true, and make sure that the user/password you enter in that part of the mail client are correct for the SMTP server. It's hard to be more specific since I don't know what client you're using. This doesn't have much of anything to do with websites, either. > Is there something that I need to add to the dns zone to make this > work? I'd say this is barking up the wrong tree, unless you're trying to send mail to a domain that doesn't have an MX record. That should give you a totally different error message though. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
