Hi,

My new broadband provider forces me to use their SMTP server for outgoing email rather than my Xilo-provided "mail.mydomainname.co.uk" one.

Do the Xilo SMTP servers accept connections on ports other than 25 (in case that gets round the problem)?

Thanks,
Christine

Hello.

We do indeed...

Do you run SMTP on alternative port? : XILO : Support

Marvellous!
Thanks for the scarily quick response Matt

No problemo

Moving to the alternative port works - thanks!

However, since making the change, I now get these errors sent back to Outlook on a regular basis when I attempt to send email.
"sorry, that domain isn't allowed to be relayed thru this MTA (#5.7.1)"
(the domain varies).

I can get round it by going into the account properties in Outlook & clicking the "Test Account Settings" button. This seems to clear the problem and then I can send.

Any ideas why this is occurring?

One other Q - is there a limit on the number of recipients of an email?

Thanks!
