I have a similar issue as the "Email Denied" posting 3/30. However ours distinguishes with the "unable to relay". This is happening more and more often and not sure how to resolve. Here is the error message: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: RE: main Street Site. Sent: 4/4/2006 3:14 PM The following recipient(s) could not be reached: 'John Smith' on 4/4/2006 3:14 PM You do not have permission to send to this recipient. For assistance, contact your system administrator. <mail.domain.us #5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for jsmith@abccompany.com> I checked the Delivery Restrictions and my guy says "Everyone". We have an Exchange 2K3 server on site. We use a vendor that supports are internet access and also holds the dns and MX records for our Exchange server. Does the rejecting recipient server get confused and think that our vendor is acting as a relay for our mail to go thru thus denying it?
Hi, In the NDR you should be able to see which server refuses to relay. Does your exchange server send directly to the internet or do you send thru a smart-host?
