I am trying to set up a debian mail server that sees the world through incoming.verizon.net and outgoing.verizon.net.
Fetchmail is set up and recieving mail fine. I have muddled through a few small setups of sendmail, smail and exim over the years. Verizon has "authenticated SMTP" which is one snag. I don't know how I'm supposed to set this up on my end. I don't even know which protocols are equivalent from smtp EHLO output and exim terminology. There are six mail accounts that map like so: Local user account: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Verizon Email ID: vze0xx0x Verizon Email Alias: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am not sure how to set up my email-addresses file or the email passwd file that I think I need. An EHLO request to outgoing.verizon.net gives HELP XREMOTEQUEUE ETRN AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN AUTH LOGIN PLAIN PIPELINING DSN 8BITMIME SIZE 8388608 The exim log looks like: 2002-12-12 13:32:21 18MY8D-0000GB-00 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] U=rir P=local S=298 2002-12-12 13:32:22 18MY8D-0000GB-00 ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mailer after MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE=1331: host outgoing.verizon.net [206.46.170.8]: 553 Authentication is required to send mail as <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2002-12-12 13:32:22 18MY8E-0000GG-00 <= <> R=18MY8D-0000GB-00 U=mail P=local S=1248 2002-12-12 13:32:22 18MY8D-0000GB-00 Error message sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-12-12 13:32:22 18MY8D-0000GB-00 Completed 2002-12-12 13:32:23 18MY8E-0000GG-00 ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp: SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data: host outgoing.verizon.net [206.46.170.8]: 553 Authentication is required to send mail as <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2002-12-12 13:32:23 18MY8E-0000GG-00 Frozen (delivery error message) -- rir Live the dream. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
