Hi there.
A week ago I did a broadband setup for a friend.....all went well.
The friend has two domain names with two different companies
(namely: www.register.com and www.demon.co.uk). The problem
is this:
I can receive all mail, from bt, www.register.com and www.demon.co.uk
using the pop3 details (as provided by each company) in Outlook Express, but when I use the smtp as smtp.btconnect.com (which is the
isp of course) for sending mail I get error 550. On the bt email address
all is well....example: david@btconnect.com replies get sent. But if I reply
with david@domainname.net (the www.register.com account) or david@domainname.co.uk (for the www.demon.co.uk account) I get error
550 in OE.
What is going wrong and who is to be contacted/blamed?! I.e. Should I
ask bt to allow the domainnames to be sent or is it the setup of OE?
HELP!
Regards
Yoingco |

what's the error message given by OE? The error code 550 isn't all that helpful by itself, as it could mean pretty much anything. |

Are you connected via BT when trying to use it's SMTP Server? If not this is why. |

Hi there,
Thanks for replying. Yes, I am on BT phoneline/broadband when this
error number occurs:
0x800CCC79
From researching the web I`m led to beleive this is the Server not allow the other domainnames through (blocking)?
Regards

See http://www.authsmtp.com lets you use with your domain name and from multiple ISP's.
I used to have to change my SMTP server depending on which ISP I was using - glad I found it - saves me loads of time and trouble. |
