 |
|
Having trouble getting email set up correctly. If I use my yahoo account, it works as I would expect.
However, when I use our company SMTP server, I get the following error:
| Quote: |
Sending Message...
ERROR: SMTP Host does not appear to support authenication: 503 AUTH command used when not advertised
SMTP Host does not appear to support authenication: 503 AUTH command used when not advertised
|
I know that this server does support authentication, so there must be some setting or switch that I must use to send the correct SMTP commands (or something).
I don't know enough about SMTP to articulate this correctly, so if someone that has a clue could point me in the right direction?
I tried connecting to the SMTP server with telnet, and the conversation went something like this:
| Quote: |
telnet <mysmtpserver> 25
Trying 65..............
Connected to <mysmtpserver> (65..............).
Escape character is '^]'.
220 ESMTP Wed, 21 May 2008 13:45:50 -0400: UCE strictly prohibited
HELP
214-Commands supported:
214 AUTH STARTTLS HELO EHLO MAIL RCPT DATA NOOP QUIT RSET HELP
AUTH
503 AUTH command used when not advertised
|
Is there another way to pass the authentication credentials that I can control with a switch or something?
Postscript:
I have gotten to the point that I've determined that our email server requires TLS. Can anyone advise me on what switches I need to flip to tell Cacti to use TLS? |
