mail relay is not allowed, what doe sit mean? - GoFuckYourself.com

justsexxx · 08-21-2003, 04:02 AM

When I send an email to a company, I keep getting it back with the message

This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Each of the following recipients was rejected by a remote mail server.
The reasons given by the server are included to help you determine why
each recipient was rejected.

Recipient: <[email protected]>
Reason: mail relay is not allowed

I tried with my own ISP, hotmail etc..Any idea what is wrong with his email?

From the looks of it, the mailserver that is supposed to receive email for his domain, is not configured correctly.

So the nameservers say "deliver mail for this domain to server xyz", while server xyz is actually not set up to receive mail for that domain.

There is another port you can send it through besides "port 25" but I won't tell... LOL

But you have to have your own server and not be a spammer to make it work. Due to being in a BACKWARDS place (BFE) as I am, my email can't go through my server on port 25, but I found a way around that :-)

Good Luck
