SmtpMail does not send to external addresses


SmtpMail does not send to external addresses Nick Carter

dotnet clr:
I am trying to send emails using the SmtpMail component. All works well as
long as the MailMessage.To address is an internal email. If it is an
external email it gets bounced back to the MailMessage.From address saying
that it was undeliverable. This only happens when the SMTP server is
Exchange 5.5. If it is VPOP then it sends the external email just fine.

Any ideas as to what's going wrong with Exchange 5.5 ?

What is the from address? If relaying is off, the from might need to
be local.

Hi!

Ensure that the exchange server is configured to send emails to
external domains. Its not an issue of the SmtpMail class.
