"Are you running Pegasus Mail as well? Any other mail client that can send mail via Mercury/32? The problem with the test you are using is that neither the spool queue or MercuryS is being used for this test. Can you telnet into port 25 of the Mercury/32 machine? Can you get it to accept the commands?"
i havnt tried this, however, i dont really see the point. if i cant send mail from inside mercury due to the afformentioned error why would i expect it to work from any other method? in anycase, i'll give what you said a shot. thanks for the tip "I guess you mean its running MercuryC to send mail via a relay host." no... "Let's take this off list, none of this has anything to do with Squirrelmail. You've got a Mercury/32 server that's not properly setup. You must have the MercuryS server running, that's what SM uses to send the mail." i put that info in just in case since i obviously dont really know what im doing [otherwise i wouldnt have a problem]. also, i am running a mercuryS server [or trying to anyway] On Thu, 29 Apr 2004 21:30:53 -0700, Thomas Stephenson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On 29 Apr 2004 aroon pahwa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I know this isnt a pure SM topic but i need this in order to run SM. > > anyone know of a place i can get some good technical help with setting > > up Mercury IMAP/STMP server? i tried their supposed support mailing > > list but i dont know whats happening with that. > > Did you try the MERCURY mailing list?
