    Hi

    I had a problem sending any emails even from webmail, kept getting a relay error. I managed to fix the sending from the webmail but i'm still getting the 550 relay error message if i try to send an email from outlook.

    I've enabled the secure connection in outlook for it isnt that.... I tried adding my internal IP address to the mynetworks directive in the main.cfg but this doesnt seem to have had any affect.

    Code:
      554 5.7.1 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied
    My Maillog says this:

    Relay access denied - is smtp problem

    mail dovecot: POP3 - is ok and shows that user has loged in and loged out from pop3 server

    Also you need to enable option in Outlook accounts that is called: My outgoing server (SMTP) reauires authentication (enable: Use same settings as my incoming mail server)

    That option can be found: Tools/Account settings
    select account and then |Change|
    |More settings|
    Outgoing Server

    also in my main.cf i dont have space characters in this line:
    stmpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination

    space between permit_sasl_authenticated, and permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination

    I removed the space but that hasnt made any difference.... I followed the perfect fedora 9 server setup.

    can you paste error in mail.log. it should look like this:
    server1 postfix/smtpd[25684]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: 554 5.7.1 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<HOME>

    or something similar

    what is the result of:
    telnet localhost 25
    ehlo server1.com <example

    and try:
    auth login
    username
    password

    does it give: 535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: authentication failure

    found few differences with tutorial main.cf:
    in tutorial main.cf there is no line:
    mydomain = spongecat.com

    in tutorial line:
    debugger_command =
    PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
    ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5

    in yours:
    debugger_command =
    PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
    ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
    $process_id & sleep 1

    AND THE REAL PROBLEM IS:

    stmpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes
    ^^
    stmpd_recipient_restrictions =
    ^^
    permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination

    smtpd_sasl not stmpd_sasl in both lines :)

    simple typo :)
