hi all, I am currently using the MailHost product in zope to send automatic e-mails from my Zope site, via the companies e-mail server. This was working perfectly on my own machine(Win 98), but when the site was moved onto an NT server I've started getting the following error, without a traceback..
Error Type: SMTPHeloError Error Value: (501, 'Invalid domain name')
Does anybody know what causes this. The server name I've used is correct,and I am able to ping it from my NT server.
Hello I don't know how the following relates to the pinging argument but: Did you add the ip adress of the e-mail server in the hosts file of your NT machine? you can find it here: c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts Otherwise the dns of your company is thinking that you are using the e-mail server for relaying illegally, and this is forbidden by your computer police department.
