Hi all,
I am having trouble emailing. I am a remote user.
I connect to a remote Terminal Server via RDP. We are using SEE32.DLL v3.5 from MarshallSoft.
I run a VFP report to email output - The email code always connects to the IP and will send the email/attachment to
a recipient in the remote LAN, but if I try to send the email to xxx@yahoo.com it goes nowhere.
The Log file says error failure "Relay" error to ...yahoo - Is this only because I am a Remote user? See the FAQ below.
And a local user there COULD in fact send an email to external people? I'm having them test this but wanted to ask you guys.

code snippet
#define SEE_SMTP_PORT 15
#define SEE_POP3_PORT 16
The Admin there says the SMTP port is 587, do I just change 15 to 587? And what about the POP3 port?

I have been researching and found things like..
http://www.systemwebmail.com/faq/4.3.11.aspx
I have told the Network Admin about these links but he thinks it is the code.

I found this at MarshallSoft a good clue but still dont know exactly what to do.
Question: Why am I getting "No relay allowed" error from the server (Error 5xx) when trying to send email?
Answer: Most SMTP servers require that the email client be locally connected or that the email recipient be in the same domain as the SMTP server. Some SMTP servers will also accept email for delivery if the client first connects to its POP3 account first.
Any help, thanks.
