I am following this procedure Option 3 in SMTP Relay Office365 When I done every procedure said in the article. After that when I run my python app with
s = smtplib.SMTP('XXMYMAILXX-com.mail.protection.outlook.com.', 25)
s.starttls()
s.login("john#XXMYMAILXX.com", "mypassword")
when I run this piece of code I get an error
smtplib.SMTPNotSupportedError: SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server
What am I missing here?
The steps I followed in the article are
Added the IP address where my python is being run to my mail connector
Added the TXT record with the IP address to spf records.

I am new to DO and I have tried to look for solution online but I didn't find any answer. I am using Ubuntu OS 20.04(LTS)X64 version.
My question is that I have 2 droplets, MailServer droplet where I have installed docker composer and mailcow to run mail mails, and another droplet named WebServer hosting my domains. I have also set up all required DS records under my domain added on WebServer droplet and pointed A record mail.mydomail.com to the IP of mail server droplet. However, whenever I try sending emails they all bounce back unless the ones sending between mydomain users(user1#mydomain.com & user2#mydomain.com). It just says that "The IP you're using to send mail is not authorized.....".
Any support to help me solve this issue will be highly appreciated. An I am wondering if that approach is possible or if there is any documentation on how someone can set up dns records on one server and configure mailserver on another server using digitalocean.
Here is how I set my DNS on mydomain.com to point to MailServer IP
I have a Coldfusion page (CF10) that creates a report and sends it via cfmail to a list of recipients. The ones in our internal domain are receiving, but the external addresses are not.
I found a couple threads where people were having the exact same problem, and the solution was to add the CF server's IP address to the Exchange server. So our IT guys did just that - they added the IP addresses of all of our production servers to the receive connector on the Exchange server. However, the mails are still not being relayed, and I'm continuing to get the same message in the mail log:
javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses; nested exception is: com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPAddressFailedException: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay
I'm not familiar with everything that needs to happen to make the Exchange Server relay email to external addresses. Adding the IP addresses to the receive connector obviously isn't enough. Are there other steps that need to be performed?
Coordinate with your IT guys. Write a ColdFusion page that they can run that sends mail to an external address they can access. Then tell them to do what they have to do to receive mail at that address.
Solution was simple - we originally specified the mail server in the cfadmin mail settings, but included no username/password. That worked fine, until we wanted to start sending cfmails to addresses outside of our own domain. So IT created a dedicated "Noreply" account for this purpose, and I entered the username/password in the cfadmin mail settings.
I'm setting up an Alfresco AWS instance and trying to configure inbound email.
As per the documentation I've configured it, hosted the Alfresco mail server on port 1025, set up an iptable rule to forward port 25 --> 1025, set up an folder in Alfresco with the alias 'dropoff' and added my work email as an allowed user for sending emails. I've also ensured all the ports are open on the EC2 instance
So far so good. If I test everything from my local computer with telnet:
helo mywork.com
mail from:myname#mywork.com
rcpt to:dropoff#alfresco.mywork.com
data
From: adinihan#mywork.com
Subject: test mail from command line
this is test number 1
sent from linux box
.
Then it works. I look in the Alfresco folder and there's the test email document. However, if I use Gmail and sign into myname#mywork.com and send an email through Gmail, then it doesn't work. It sends alright and there's nothing in Alfresco logging, however the document just never appears in the Alfresco folder. The from/to address is the same as the telnet command's one.
Since I can telnet from my local computer to the instance I assume it's not an issue with ports on the EC2 instance. Why would telnet work but sending it via Gmail not?
EDIT: got an email back from Google about an hour after I sent it with the error message TLS Negotiation failed: generic::failed_precondition: starttls error (0): protocol error
EDIT 2: here are my inbound emai settings in the global properties file
# Inbound #
email.inbound.unknownUser=anonymous
email.inbound.enabled=true
email.server.enabled=true
email.server.hideTLS=false
email.server.enableTLS=true
email.server.requireTLS=false
email.server.port=1025

I am having some PLESK Mail receiving issues.
I just setup a dedicated server with 1and1. The server console is PLESK 12. I am using 1and1 nameserver which are pointed correctly from the domain registrars. I am able to send mail using webmail but not able to receive it.
When I do a mail server check it I get the following error:
Error connecting to mailserver: No route to host
If anyone is aware of some missing SMTP settings that need to be set up in the initial Plesk configuration it would be appreciated.
I've been trying to install a Postfix server for handling mail for my domain. I found some nice tutorial and I was able to create email address and server responds correctly with telnet (imap and pop3 included, I also charge the config in Gmail and works correctly).
To handle POP3 and IMAP I have installed Courier
The problem comes when I try to send e-mails to myself (with external email address), I receive the following error code:
Action: failed
Status: 5.4.6
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; mail for (servername) loops back to
myself
I reviewed my postfix mail.conf config, as in many webs they said that it could be because mydestination was not corectly configured. I have included the domain configuration and I still get the same error. (/etc/postfix/main.cf)
mydestination = mail.mydomain.com, domain.com, localhost
This is in a VPS, so the hostname is different to the domain name, I'm not sure if this can have any influence on the handling mail error.
Could someone help me to find where can the error be?
Thanks for your attention and your answers
You're probably sending mail to a recipient, with an email address in a zone which has an MX record, with its value a hostname, which resolves to the ip address of your mailserver, while this your server hasn't been told in its main.cf config file (behind mydestination), that it is referring to itself.
Therefore, your server is wondering why an attempt to send mail to - as it believes - another server results in finding that the ip address of that another server is its own ip address.
Update mydestination accordingly.
It helps to use the same hostname for MX record, for all zones your mailserver handles incoming mail for, as that keeps your mydestination manageable.
