The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was '<email>@ameritech.net'. Subject 'testing', Account: 'pop3.<domain>.com', Server: 'smtp.<domain>.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)', Port: 587, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79 I have domain.com setup in the rcpthosts - This was the same error I got when they were accessing from their office and then I added the WAN IP and it worked. Now...we have another client...in another city..that has no issues at all and I never had to add their IP to the tcp.smtp file. If they happen to be having issues, they have not reported it as they state everything is working fine. thanks, Marty
