I just started getting this message this morning, though I've been able to send mail just fine before. At one point I had to switch to using Earthlink's SMTP server to send mail because I was using their service, and their firewall prevented me from making SMTP connections to any other sites including kieferskunk.net .
I'm no longer with Earthlink, so that limitation is gone, but apparently I can't get my client (Eudora 6/Windows) to work with Kieferskunk.net anymore. I can check my mail just fine, but I can't send - I get the message "Relaying denied. Proper authentication required."
Can someone help me figure out what the problem is here? Thanks.
(Unfortunately, I'll be out of town until Monday, so I won't be able to reply until then.) _________________ > KieferSkunk |

I'm back, and I'm still having problems. I can apparently send mail to myself just fine, but I get the "Relaying denied" message when I try to send to anything outside of PlanetFurry/KieferSkunk.net .
Anyone? _________________ > KieferSkunk |

Okay, that's bizarre... the problem appears to have just fixed itself. (Or someone here managed to fix it.) I can now send mail.
Thanks, and sorry for the spam. _________________ > KieferSkunk |

It may have been related to either the SpamAssassin upgrade or the IP address migration. A few things to do when something like this happens are:
- Ensure you are pointing to the SMTP domain for your site, and it resolves to the correct IP address
- The server requires SMTP Authentication to be used when sending messages, so your email client must be able to support this
- At the moment, SMTPS (Secure SMTP over SSL/TLS) is unsupported, and must not be enabled in your email client
- If you continue to receive errors, and they appear to be coming from this server and not another external server, send a full copy of the message (including all headers) to [email protected]

No, it's working fine now. Thanks.
BTW, Whip, did you ever get my private-messages and e-mails asking about another site? My fiancee wants to host her own art gallery on PlanetFurry, and I never heard anything back from you or anyone else about this. I don't think she wants or requires a domain, but she would like some space. _________________ > KieferSkunk |
