Greetings, Due to port 25 restrictions, I am trying to get my brother's email server to authenticate out on port 587. I have sendmail talking via port 587, but it is not properly authenticating. To help narrow things down, I am having his machine route all mail to my machine with authentication. His machine is a running version 7: 7.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE #0: Sun Feb 24 19:59:52 UTC 2008 Here are some relevant parts of the hostname.mc file: define(`SMART_HOST', `myserver.com') define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `LOGIN PLAIN')dnl FEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/mail/auth/client-info.db')dnl auth/client-info has this: AuthInfo:myserver.com "U:hisuser" "I:hisuser" "P:password" "M:PLAIN" And I have created client-info.db hash. I have copied the config file workflow from my server which uses smtp auth to talk to my ISP on port 587. On myserver.com, I do see that his machine connects to me, but I see this error in maillog: Relaying denied. Proper authentication required. When I was trying to go through his ISP, I got this error message in his error log: stat=Service unavailable. We share ISP (from different states though) and I am still able to send via my ISP. I even tried to directly copying my auth info for the ISP from my box to his (so he would be sending as me) and I got this same error. Have I missed a configuration setting somewhere?
