Guest je@vorchester.com Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 I hope someone can help. I have Windows 2003 Web Edition, with POP3 and SMTP installed. I have the server configured with SMTP - Authentication Allow Annonamous Access Integrated Windows Authentication SMTP - Relay Only the list below (list is blank) (I have tried adding local IP, didn't work so I put it back) Allow all computers which successfully authenticate is checked I also have require SPA enabled. (previously it was disabled, no change) I seem to be able to receive mail fine so pop3 is fine, but when I send I receive back an email with an attachment that says "Helo command rejected: need fully-qualified hostname". I am using Outlook Express as the email client. I have configured it every different way I can think of, currently it is: The public domain is the email server (I have tried using the local server name, since I am on the same network, didn't work) Log on using Secure Password Authentication is check (to match the server, I have had it unchecked to match the server previously, didn't work) My server requires authentication is checked. This has been a real hair puller. Hope someone can help, it's driving me nuts. Thanks for your help
Guest AU Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 RE: SMTP problem in Window 2003 Web Edition Hello, I had a similar problem on Windows 2003 Standard Edition using the SMTP virtual server. I rectified it by issuing a FQDN on the SMTP side this can be done by: * IIS>SMTP Virtual Server>Properties>Delivery>Advanced>Advanced Delivery> Type in the FQDN. See if that helps; alternatively have a peak at this MS support page. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303734 You shouldn't have any options in there for relaying though. Hope it helps.

Guest Ryan Hanisco Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 RE: SMTP problem in Window 2003 Web Edition Yeah, the issue is a problem with the lookup of the FQDN. This means that either there was a typo or omission in the setup or that DNS is not working as expected. I would take a look at these as a starting point. -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCTS: SQL 2005, Project+ http://www.techsterity.com Chicago, IL Remember: Marking helpful answers helps everyone find the info they need quickly.
