Hi, I''ve managed to setup Exim 3 successfully sometime ago but now I encounter the following errors when I tried to send an email to my account: <myaccount@XXXdomain.com>: Remote host said: 550 5.0.0 <myaccount@XXXdomain.com>... RCPT TO: <myaccount@XXXdomain.com> Relaying not allowed - please use SMTP AUTH [RCPT_TO] On a separate case but using the same mail server, I also encounter the following error when I try sending an email using Outlook (the same email is successful if I use Yahoo! Mail) : ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <myaccount@XXXdomain2.com> (reason: 554 Security failure) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to mail.mymailserver.com.:>>> STARTTLS<<< 454 OpenSSL/0.9.6beta currently unavailable>>> MAIL From:<myaccount@sender.com> SIZE=897<<< 554 Security failure 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable Will appreciate if someone can point me to the right direction in debugging and resolving this error.
