i am trying to send an email with my freebsd server using postfix and dbmail to an external adress.



I have noticed the following things:



MYSERVER -> MYSERVER = OKAY



EXTERNALSERVER -> MYSERVER = OKAY



MYSERVER -> EXTERNALSERVER = ERROR(454 4.7.1 Relay access denied)



Why do i get this error? i think it has something to do with my main.cf



####MAIN.CF######

          Isn't that you haven't authenticated properly (via your mail client) to send outbound email or otherwise haven't setup mynetworks such that it will allow all systems within your network to send without authentication?

            I had a similar error message when I set up sendmail as in this thread. For me the problem was that I was authenticating over port 465, which is SMTP with TLS, but the protocol requires TLS to run after authentication, for example over port 25, which is SMTP without TLS.



            The solution was to change the port in ~/.authinfo to



            machine server.domain.tld login username@domain.com port 25 password XYZ

              • Yeah this fixed my setup too. Is it because it restricts who can send email and your home computer ip is never on that network? Or can somebody perhaps explain what it means?
