I have a new web server that I am testing before turning it on live. I have run into a cfmail issue. The server is
Windows 2008 R2, 64Gig ram, 64-bit, IIS 7.5, Coldfusion 9.0.2 multi server, clustering 2 CF instances (my 1st time clustering), JDK1.7.0_71
cfmail is not sending email to recipients outside of our domain/work domain. The 1st cfmail tag below sends the email but the 2nd one does not. This is what I see when trying to send via the 2nd tag with external recipient email address domain
no errors on the page I run in the browser
email is not received at me#home.com (syntax is correct)
attempt #2 shows up in mail/Undelivr folder
mail.log has this error
"Error","scheduler-3","01/15/15","10:13:27",,"javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses; nested exception is: com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPAddressFailedException: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay
application.log - no error
exception.log has same error in addition to stack trace
server.log no error
The same .cfm file I am testing with works fine on all of our other CF servers so I do not think it is the mail server configured in the CF admin. Any help is appreciated
<cfmail to="me#**work**.com" from="someone#work.com" subject="test" type="html">
<cfmail to="me#**home**.com" from="someone#work.com" subject="test" type="html">
The issue was our mail relay server did not have the IP of the new web server. After adding the IP of the new web server it worked just fine.
Thanks David!

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

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 have a big problem with the setup for an Domain.
The Webservices are established on our Server but the Mail functions are on a Server of an other Company when we now want send an Email over our Server he tried to send it localy insted of sending it to an other server so he give back an no account here error.
Thanks for helping me out and friendly greetings.
Edit: OS Debian 6
Imap: Courier
Send: Postfix
CP: Plesk
Further to this, we are using Plesk 11.5.3 on a setup where a single mail service is activated for all domains.
So each domain cannot have the mail service turned on or off individually.
We had the same problem as Franco, and we fixed this by running the following command for each domain that had external email:
# /usr/local/psa/bin/mail --off domain.com
Works perfectly, and removes any previously created local email addresses from Postfix.
"The problem is because the server will attempt to deliver emails for the domain name locally by default. To resolve that problem you would need to set it to use the domain name's MX record."
The simple answer is to disable mail services for the subscription.
Untick the box for "Activate mail service on domain".

Should I have an end point 25 on my vm ? What else could cause this error ?
Looks like there is an issue with the outbound stmp server you are trying to use. Is this also hosted in Windows Azure or an external provider somewhere? In both cases, make sure they allow inbound, authenticated connections and on what port. There shouldn't be any blocks on outbound connections on your Windows Azure virtual machine, so odds are the problem is where the email server is hosted.
