[ZendTo] Re: Sending outbound emails still not working - HELP!

If you look at my other reply, you will see that this only works for me
when I remove the 8bitmime ESMTP verb from Exchange.  When I did a
telnet to my exchange server and initiated the "ehlo" command, it listed
8bitmime as one of the advertised ESMTP verbs.  I had to follow the
instruction in that link I sent to remove 8bitmime from being
advertised. Once removed, it all seems to start working for me
immediately

 

How to turn off ESMTP verbs in Exchange 2000 Server and in Exchange
Server 2003

Sorry, don't understand that at all. The message is just a plain text
email. You haven't got any international characters in the email address
or message anywhere, have you? If not, then it really is just a very
plain text email message.

Run Wireshark on the Exchange server or the ZendTo server and trap the
networking traffic between the two to see exactly what it's sending.

Have you not got any other non-Exchange mail server you could send the
message to, to try to get a more sensible error message?

Neither I, nor any other ZendTo user, has ever reported this problem. It
just uses the MTA installed on the ZendTo server to send a plain text
email message. Nothing weird at all, it's as simple as it can get.

The following two links below says it is a permanent error of type: "the
media of the message is not supported". Not sure how to resolve that but
at first glance it looks like it has to be something to do with the
source of the email...being the zendto machine sending it in some sort
of incompatible format. Any thoughts on this?

X.6.1 Media not supported

The media of the message is not supported by either the
delivery protocol or the next system in the forwarding path.
This is useful only as a permanent error.

Interesting, the two test emails I sent from my telnet session actually
did go outbound to an external email address. Just does't work using
Zendto drop-off etc.

	Ok I figured that out and installed telnet but unfortunately I
don't seem to get anything other than it queued the mail for delivery.
My telnet session didn't give me much to troubleshoot.

	Doesn't look like telnet command is available for me to use.
Must I perform a "apt-get install telnetd" in order to get this?

Start an
	smtp conversation with the from and to addresses you're trying
to use and it should tell you why the message is being rejected.

	OK, I assumed you meant for me to just type "mailq" at the linux
prompt.
	I did and it says the mail queue is empty which is what I
expected any way.
	
	Any other thoughts on this?

	Do you see your mail in 'mailq' ?
	
	You may want to make 'relayhost=IP ADDRESS'
