Doteasy Knowledge Base .: Email .: Doteasy SmartMail .: I can not send email to another user under my domain name

I can not send email to another user under my domain name

After upgrading to SmartMail, you find you can no longer send emails from one "@yourdomainname.com" email address to another using your POP email client.

The SmartMail system has increased security features to help combat spam. Any email that is sent from a POP email client that is not sent using the outgoing mail server "mail.yourdomainname.com" will be considered a 'spoofed' email and will bounce.

To correct this issue please adjust your POP email account settings as follows:
- Change the outgoing SMTP server setting to mail.yourdomainname.com
- Change the outgoing SMTP port number to 587

In Outlook and Outlook express, the outgoing port number can be found in the "Advanced Settings" area.

You need authentication in order to send out any emails on our mail server. Please make the following changes to your account settings.

Outlook Express:
Tool -> Account... -> 'mail' tab -> Select mail account -> properties -> 'Server' tab -> check 'My server requires authentication' -> Click 'OK'

Outlook:
Tools -> Email Accounts... -> View or Change existing e-mail accounts -> select your account -> Change... -> More Settings... -> Outgoing Server tab -> check My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication -> Use same setting as my incoming mail server

Netscape:
Edit -> Preferences... -> Mail Server -> 'Outgoing Mail Server' Section ensure 'Outgoing Mail Server user name' is filled out. -> Click 'OK'

Edit -> Mail & Newsgroups Account Setting -> Outgoing Server (SMTP) -> enable 'Use name and password' -> enter username 'userid%yourdomain.com' - Click 'OK'

Eudora:
Tools -> Options -> Getting Started -> under 'SMTP Server(Outgoing)' check 'Allow Authentication' -> click 'OK'

Entourage:
Tools -> Accounts -> Select your email account -> Edit -> Click here for advanced sending options button -> Check the box next to SMTP server requires authentication -> Use same settings as incoming mail server.

Thunderbird:

1. Go to Tools -> Account Settings -> Outgoing Server (SMTP)
2. Select the Outgoing SMTP server you wish to configure and click "Edit".
3. Port: change the port from 25 to 587. Next, under "Security And Authentication" select "User Name And Password".
- User Name: username@yourdomainname.com
- Password: Your Password For "username@yourdomainname.com"
- Use Secure Connection: No
4. Under the "Server Settings" attribute for the mail account you wish to use in Thunderbird...
- Under "Security Settings", ensure that "Use Secure Connection" is set to "Never" and "Use Secure Authentication" is unchecked.
5. Under the name of the email account (next to the plus or minus sign that will collapse or expand the mail account settings for that email account). Click on the dropdown menu for Outgoing Server (SMTP) and select the outgoing mail server that we just configured.
