Hello Friends,

I need to send email messages from my controller (BL2600). I started with
the sample program smtp.C

I have set the IP address of the BL2600 to match our local area network .I
am trying to send email through

Our mail server. Therefore I set the name of our mail server using #define
SMTP_SERVER directive.

But the sample says that the server must be configured to relay mail for our
controller. I understand that

We are sending the smtp message to the server and the server has to send it
to the recipient. But I do

Not have any idea how to configure the server to relay the mails for the
controller. I have only the IP address

for the controller . Is it possible to configure the server to relay emails
from our controller using IP address?

Or is there any methods to make the server identify the controller?

Thank You

Phahee

In order to answer that, we're going to have to know what email server you are using. Then, the question might be better directed at a user group for that server product. ;-)

RE: Email relay - phahee - Jun 11 7:20:04 2009

Hi Elidhs,

I am using the source of free email server(hMailServer)from
MicroSoft:http://hmailserver.com/ Now I am abele to relay the mails from my
controller. This server is in the same local network where my controller is.
This server receives the mail from my controller, and tries to connect to
the recipient. For example, I tried to send an email message to my
@yahoo.com ID. The server sends to the yahoo SMTP server, but the yahoo
server sends the following error message

Error Type ; SMTP

Remote server (216.39.53.1) issued an error

hMailServer sent:

Remote Server replied: 553 mail from 116.14.245.240 not allowed-5.71[BL23]
connections not accepted from IP addresses on Spamhaus XBL.

I just created a domain in my name and created an email account and used
this email fro the FROM field in Dynamic C program. The server can relay
this and sends to the recipient, but the recipient considers this as a spam
email. Is it because of the free server? Because the domain is not
registered.

Is it possible to configure a free mail server to do this or Do I need to by
a domain to send emails to yahoo or gmail account?

Thank you

Phahee

In this particular instance, it is not the version of the email server which is being rejected, but the address of the server. It wouldn't matter what email server you were using, if it lived at 116.14.245.240 it would be rejected.

This is not really the correct forum for discussing this non-rabbit issue. However, I will say this:

Any email server which accepts email from clients which do no authenticate against it, will probably be rejected as a source of email by the real-world email servers.

Why not set up a google mail account, and get your device to connect directly to the google mail SMTP server. It will have to authenticate by supplying a valid google email account name and password. If you ever change the password you'll need to update your device with the correct details.
