MailEnable Standard version 6.03 under IIS7 & Windows Server 2008 64-bit Web edition.
What has been tried is the Relay settings under SMTP properties, with:
- Allow relay for authenticated senders enabled and disabled (when enabled, using a specially added Windows account with User and IIS_IUSRS rights)
- Allow relay for privileged IP addresses (with 2 server IP addresses and 127.0.0.1)
- Allow relay for local send addresses (enabled)
- POP before SMPT authentication (enabled and disabled)
If nothing else, this mail server should at least be a gift for spammers.
The result is consistent, returning a 551 error:
Web application log:
SendMail: error calling SendMail method in object "wbtmanemail.mailsender"
To:ian@avionwbt.co.uk
From:support@avionwbt.co.uk
Subject:Course Expiration.
The server rejected the sender address. The server response was: 551 This mail server requires authentication before sending mail from a locally hosted domain. Please reconfigure your mail client to authenticate before sending mail.

The web application has no facility to "reconfigure your mail client to authenticate before sending mail" and I just have to get mailEnable to accept (send) automatically generated email - which I thought one of the SMTP Relay options would allow.
Am I missing something here? Are there additional permissions required somewhere?
