Thanks for the reply. I'm pretty sure it's a qmail/rcpthosts problem |
| 2 |
because the java stuff has worked on other machines. Also, after sending |
| 3 |
my email I kept mucking around and it occured to me to just have the |
| 4 |
java code send the email to an address hosted on the server. After |
| 5 |
making that change, the email goes through fine. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I could just leave it that way, but I would like the users of this |
| 8 |
software to be able to configure it to send the mail anywhere. There |
| 9 |
should be a way to set it up so that, if the mail originates from the |
| 10 |
same machine, it's relayed. In fact, I'm surprised that it doesn't work |
| 11 |
that way out of the box. |
| 12 |

Thanks, |
