Subject:[courier-users] Outbound authenticationActions...
From:Bowie Bailey (Bowi@BUC.com)

I am trying to configure Courier to send all my mail through my ISP's (Bellsouth) mailserver. Too many servers reject direct mail from my DSL IP. Bellsouth requires authentication, so I need to enable it in Courier. So far, every attempt ends the same way.

Note that I am masking the email addresses and passwords.

courieresmtpd: error,relay=::ffff:205.152.59.70,from=<US@bellsouth.net>, to=<USER@DOMAIN>: 513 Relaying denied.

I have set up the following configuration.

/etc/courier/esmtpauthclient: mx00.mail.bellsouth.net US@bellsouth.net PASSWORD

(This is the same username and password that works just fine from Outlook or Thunderbird.)

/etc/courier/esmptroutes: :mx00.mail.bellsouth.net

(I have tried a couple of variations on this, with the same results)

What am I missing? Is there another setting somewhere?
