I am currently using Entourage at my job to get mail through Microsoft Exchange. Due to some problems with spam mail at work, mail relay was turned off and now I can receive mail in Entourage but I cannot send mail through Exchange. I can send mail through Earthlink which is my personal isp. Has anyone heard of this and is there a fix?

Thank youraydemel@earthlink.net

Mail relay was turned off? Huh?

What's your work SMTP server? Are you sending emails from within your company's intranet? If you're at home, you should use earthlink.net to send. If work allowed you to send via their SMTP server, they'd be an open relay and all your work's emails would be blocked. If you have a VPN and you're tunneled in it should work, but not if you're not.

Open relays are bad. They did the right thing.

You might be able to authenticate against the SMTP service and then send to it.

When I am at work, I am able to send mail out through earthlink but not through the company exchange system. Away from work, I use vpn to get to the exchange mail and retreive mail but I still cannot send or reply to mail through exchange.
