Re: Send mail through the XMail SMTP service

Hi Eelko,

XMail does normally forward non-local e-mails to external SMTP servers. 
A more likely cause of your problem is that your ISP is blocking 
outbound access to SMTP ports to prevent spam. Try this: "telnet 
smtp.gmail.com smtp", if that doesn't connect, that's your problem. If 
it does connect, your internet IP address is likely to be on "dynamic 
IP" blacklists, so your mail could easily disappear in spamfilters. A 
solution could be to configure your ISP's smtp server as a "smart host" 
("DefaultSMTPGateways") in XMail.

[email protected] and [email protected]) and I am able to send emails between these accounts. Now I wanna send an email from one of these test account to some internet email address, let's say my gmail account. Unfortunately XMail doesn't automatically forward the email to the gmail smtp server. How can I accomplish that XMail forward all email which cannot be delivered locally?
