Re: [cobalt-users] RaQ4 relaying denied sending mail *to* a new vsite

[Keith Fernandez <keith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I keep getting this error on my cobalt RaQ550.

" reject=550 5.7.1 <'username@xxxxxxxxxxxx'>... "Relaying denied.  Please 
check your mail first or restart your mail session.", 

Does anyone know what the problem is. This happens erratically.
It happens to mail incoming to my server as well as mail outgoing from My 
server. 
After googling around,
I found a few pages which seem to suggest that it may be a EHLO/HELO problem 
with older version sendmail servers talking to newer version sendmail server
The way to eliminate this error is by using HELO instead of EHLO.

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what to do?

Regards,
Keith
