Hi,

I'm still trying to send email from my mobile phone through my Postfix
(on SuSE 10.0) server. I believe I have a TLS connection set up and
working but the server does not allow me to relay mail from my phone to
external recipients. Copy of log for such an attempt follows:


<snip>

with cipher RC4-MD5 (128/128 bits)
Sep 17 19:09:52 General postfix/smtpd[19573]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from
host212-183-132-39.uk.access.vodafone.net[212.183.132.39]: 554
<Recipient@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: Relay access denied;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


from=<Sender@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> to=<Recipient@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
proto=ESMTP helo=<[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]>

<snip>


TIA

Hmmm...

At you say, it looks as if postfix is set to not allow relaying of mail
from external addresses... As vodafone in the UK apply a NAT to their
local addressing and the externally advertised IP address does change a
bit you are also wise to avoid allowing relaying from the vodafone
address space. You probably need to set up authenticated SMTP on your
postfix server and give the accounts relay rights.

Unfortunately, the Nokia end of authenticated SMTP is a bit of a pig to
set up by some accounts, (and I have always used the vodafone mail
server to relay mail so I have not indulged in this particular bit of
pain myself). You should be able to find assistance on this on the
www.mycommunicator.com website.

If you forward your postfix configuration file to the list there are
others on this list who can give assistance on how to set authenticated
SMTP up for you.
