SMTP error: James trying to relay?
I'm attempting to send a message to a yahoo account. I'm getting this error.
Does this look right?

Well, I may but only after I get the answer right. :)

The address he reports is the local IP assigned by his DHCP server from Cox
Internet. So THAT address would be a poor choice for config.xml, since it
would change from time to time.

I worry you? hah... ( that question should show you my current level of expertise with DNS servers. )
Thanks again for your help.

Well, you worry me when you ask when DNS server changes... very rarely
do DNS servers change.
And you don't want resolve 127.0.0.1, you want to ask 127.0.0.1 to
resolve an address.

OK, that's one for Serge's FAQ item. Windows, including XP, users
apparently should find the DNS servers for their ISP, and set those into
James.

Ok. So, anytime the DNS server changes, I'll need to change it in the James config file?

Close, this means you can reach a DNS server but nslookup is using
208.180.1.69 as the DNS server. You can set that as a DNS server in
james-config.xml, or try nslookup to query 127.0.0.1.

Sorry, I got confused by bit about DNS service of XP. You were right
the first time, a DNS service is a local DNS server, so if you set a
name server to 127.0.0.1, that should work. I'm not sure why the name
servers that handle your domains wouldn't be responding.
If you've got XP, I think you may have nslookup... can you run that from
the command line, try to do MX type queries on the servers you're
specifying in james-config.xml and see if you get responses? Maybe
you're on a NAT'd network that's not letting DNS queries through or
something. Not really sure what the cause is, but if James is trying
(and therefore failing) to connect to yahoo.com, I'm almost certain it's
because it can't reach a DNS server.

Excellent. So your localhost DNS wasn't properly relaying, and your ISPs
DNS servers did the trick? Excellent. Good to know for future reference.

If you are taking everything and dumping it into one place, you can do it
your way. I use JDBCVirtualUserTable to map from multiple domains. You can
search the archives for previous messages on that subject. :-)

Attn: Noel & Serge:
Thanks so very much for your help. I was at my wit's end trying to figure out the answer to this (apparently simple) puzzle:
Putting in my service provider's DNS servers worked. 127.0.0.1 didn't. The servers I use for domain resolution also did not.
Thanks again for you help.
Noel: I have found at least one way to receive mail for multiple domains. I would be interested in how you are doing it, however.

RE: SMTP error: James trying to relay?

I'm using ns_.mydyndns.org for domain resolution (they inform me that they don't do recursive lookups, however, so I suspect it will do no good putting those name server addresses in as dns server entries.) I'm trying to send email from sourceapprentice.com (not soulinstinct.com); running nslookup, I get the following for sourceapprentice.com. ( It is the domain that the email is being sent TO that needs the MX resolution, right? -- I'm trying to send mail to a yahoo account: I posted that resolution in another email.)
The confusion is that (I assume) my local DNS service -- which is most likely accessing my service provider's DNS servers -- must be what is being used to resolve these addresses. I have an entry for 127.0.0.1 for my dns server in the config.xml file. What am I missing?

No, but you do need to configure a dns server entry in config.xml so that
the mail server knows whom to contact to lookup MX records.
When you tell the mail server to deliver e-mail to jnorment @
soulinstinct.com, the mail server needs to find the MX record for
soulinstinct.com. Here is what it looks like if I do it by hand:
> set q=mx
> soulinstinct.com
Non-authoritative answer:
soulinstinct.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger =
mx2.daemonmail.net
soulinstinct.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger =
mx3.daemonmail.net
soulinstinct.com MX preference = 30, mail exchanger =
mx1.daemonmail.net
So I see that you have three possible mail servers of differing priority,
each handled by daemonmail.net. Two of them are of equal priority, and
probably load balance. The third serves as a backup.

This has nothing to do with how your machine's DNS is configured. Mail
servers need their own direct access to a DNS server because of how mail
is routed.
Check the james-config.xml file and there will be a place in bold that
asks you to enter your DNS servers.

is a bit buried in our FAQ at the moment).

I'm a little at a loss on how to set up DNS any differently. On XP, the DNS service is standard.
I've tried including the name servers that are resolving my domain, but that didn't work, either.

Someone already wrote to say that THIS error is from not having DNS
setup correctly. As you'll see in the stack trace, you are trying to
deliver a message to a hostname "yahoo.com", which there isn't any. If
you had DNS configured, it would be trying mx1.yahoo.com, mx2.yahoo.com,
etc...

Well, it would help if we knew exactly what problem you are having. What
happens when an e-mail is sent to be relayed? Does it go to RemoteDelivery,
which owns the Output spool? If so, what errors is RemoteDelivery logging
when it attempts to deliver the e-mail?

How would I check that? ( by connecting to port 25 of another domain? )
I can connect to port 25 of my service provider... which I would expect, as they provide SMTP service.
Alternately, how can I check if it is an issue with the way I set up the DNS in the config file
(aside from it just not working?)
Is there a FAQ that answers these questions?
As always, thanks for your time.

You could check that with telnet.

Could this be an indication that my ISP is blocking port 25?

Could this be an indication that my ISP is blocking port 25?

RE: SMTP error: James trying to relay?

Looks like a DNS problem. Check that you properly set your DNS servers.
RemoteDelivery should resolve the domain 'yahoo.com' to an MX record that
looks something like mx1.mail.yahoo.com. If the MX record can't be resolved
(i.e. you didn't set your DNS servers) then it will attempt to connect
directly to the specified domain as a server.
