| reply to jsolo1 Re: [E-Mail] SMTP.rcn.com silently not relaying, again
You can infact relay mail from any mail-client as user@anydomain.com through smtp.rcn.com. Case by Case restrictions to this may be imposed as result of a compromised computer or host although in several of those cases enabling smtp auth will correct this.
If you are having a trouble sending email with your "From" setup as something other than rcn.com I would suggest enabling smtp auth and seeing if that helps with your problem.
We process a tone of email with customers doing just this scenerio so there is a possibility of specific 'one off' spam domains and what not. That being said if you want to message me some details around one of these 'dropped' emails we can research into where your mail is going. -- Bryan Laird Director Product and Technology |
