How I configure of sendmail for mail sending?
I unable to send mail using outlook express. Our sever is running using Red Hat Linux 9.0. Mail incoming running ok, but mailing sending is problem. Pl. help me.
- Most often this happens if you check the SPA check box. Make sure whether your server requires it or not.
To confirm perform the following steps –
1.Open outlook express
2.From the tools menu select account
3.From the Internet Account window select your account and click properties.
4.Click on the server tab.
5.Uncheck the box – Log on using secure password authentication
6.Now send mail after downloadingAlso check SMTP address and server port number (default is 25) for outgoing message.
- Verify the firewall or the sendmail is blocking your connections.
telnet mail.example.com 25 -> You should get the the connection if not check your local & mail server firewall .
Check mail server's log file for errors /var/log/maillog
Update the question with the client and server's error messages.
