Relaying Error on BPM?

Nigel,
Â
The tips #1 and #2 were a big help. I modified our Exchange server setting for #2, since we are set up the same way with Exchange 2003. With that, the message would process properly via the epicor-smtp.log.txt file ... but still no message coming to me.
Â
I looked at the settings we have for tip #1 and, frankly, I chickened out. I don't consider myself an Exchange guru and the LAST thing I want is to find my Exchange server acting as a relay server for the world. I'll contact our Exchange wizards and get the appropriate settings while still being secure. But I believe I'm close as a result of these two hints.
Â
Thanks for your help.
-Karl

Hi Karl,

Not my area, I'm afraid. I copied the code directly from Vantage where it worked without any messing by me on Exchange (we're on 2003). If Dale's suggestion doesn't work out, I found two suggestions on the web:

1. Under the Exchange System Manager check servers> then protocols> smtp> and properties of the default SMTP virtual server. Go to the access tab and verify that your certificate is installed for secure communication or that you're set for "Anonymous access". (We're set to anonymous access and elsewhere we specify the IP addresses that are allowed to relay).

2. Go to Exchange System Manager > Global Settings > Message Delivery (right click > Properties) > Intelligent Message Filtering.. then check the "When blocking messages", set it to No Action and see if that message goes away.. (We have the SCL rating set to 8 and "No Action").

Did you try setting the FROM address to your own email address? Just to see if it worked.

Nigel.

The email addresses in the 4GL are inside single quotes. I copied and pasted it directly from Nigel's message and then changed the addresses based on this company. I created the BPM as a pre-processing directive based on changing the PORel.UnitCost field from any to any.

I have seen that message if the Email tab in Company maintenance is not
set up correctly.

Subject: [Vantage] Relaying Error on BPM?






I created a BPM that uses the 4GL email code generously sent out by
Nigel recently. I used my internal email address for the TO field and
vantage@ .....com for the FROM address. I independently created a silly
BAM using the same TO and FROM address. The BAM sends the message to me
and the 4GL BPM does not.

Looking at the file epicor-stmp.log.txt, tells me that the BPM drops out
with the error of: cSMTPResponse 550 5.7.1 Requested action not taken:
message refused.

Now this error (550) is normally associated with a 'relaying' error, but
the BAM with the same email addresses works OK. Does this error conceal
any other mischief? The email addresses in the 4GL are inside single
quotes. I copied and pasted it directly from Nigel's message and then
changed the addresses based on this company. I created the BPM as a
pre-processing directive based on changing the PORel.UnitCost field from
any to any.

Any thoughts?

Make sure that your vantage server is in the authorized relay list on
your exchange server
