amimusa · 01-08-2009, 10:37 PM

hello, i am trying to set up a mail server using exim4 and since I have dynamic IP I need to use a smarthost. I am trying but I am experiencing problems

Code:

manou@amimusa:~$ telnet amimusa.net 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 amimusa.net ESMTP Exim 4.63 Fri, 09 Jan 2009 06:29:09 +0100
EHLO amimusa.net
250-amimusa.net Hello localhost [127.0.0.1]
250-SIZE 52428800
250-PIPELINING
250-AUTH LOGIN
250-STARTTLS
250 HELP

seems to have SSL auth enabled
but when I try to send ... I got this return message

SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<manou@amimusa.net>
+SIZE=1512:
host smtp.telefonica.net [213.4.149.228]: 530 authentication required for
+mail submission

I need help, any ideas ?¿
Thanks in advance

You need to provide login and password.
You can add them in
/etc/exim.4/passwd.client

smtp.telefonica.net:your_login:your_password

Hi, thanks for your replay.

I set the Auth data in this file, but I still have this error

Code:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

  amimusa@yahoo.es
    SMTP error from remote mail server after MAIL FROM:<manou@amimusa.net>
+SIZE=1518:
    host smtp.telefonica.net [213.4.149.228]: 530 authentication required for
+mail submission

I try different combinations and talk to my ISP (telefonica.net) but there is no way they understand me.

This is my passwd.client file

Code:

amimusa:~#  cat /etc/exim4/passwd.client 
# password file used when the local exim is authenticating to a remote
# host as a client.
#
# see exim4_passwd_client(5) for more documentation
#
# Example:
### target.mail.server.example:login:password
#
#smtp.telefonica.net:jmanuel.velasco$telefonica.net:*****
smtp.telefonica.net:964390008$telefonica.net:****

Thank you.

shouldn't that be a "@" sign instead of "$" ?
