I am trying to configure my Postfix Mail Server so that it will allow people to login through SMTP, at the moment i am trying to use my own mail server to send mail from other sites through my mail server.
I am entering the smtp details but it always fails authentication.
Can anyone tell me how i allow the Postfix Mail Server so that it will allow remote websites and applications to connect to the smtp server. An example below.
I want to send an email to moo@moo.com from the email address fred@fred.com. To send it through my own server using the authentication details below. I have already created the admin:serverbase.co.uk email address.
How do i make sure it is working with the -r ptameter?
Here is a section of the mail log file thing. I dont under stand it all lol. It seem to have alot of errors and repeating bits? I have attched the file.
