Hi Erwin ISPs do what they like to do ... One option would be to bring his own SMTP server. An old Pentium machine with Mercury/32 will do: http://www.pmail.com/overviews/ovw_mercury.htm Or get an account at Novell's MyRealBox: http://www.myrealbox.com Example: Return-path: <cactus at cactus.dk> Received: from smtp-send.myrealbox.com [192.108.102.143] by cactus.dk; Tue, 15 Mar 2005 19:20:34 +0100 Received: from smtp.myrealbox.com cactusdata [213.150.48.58] by smtp-send.myrealbox.com with NetMail SMTP Agent $Revision: 1.4 $ on Linux; Tue, 15 Mar 2005 11:20:33 -0700 X-Mailer: Ultrafunk Popcorn release 1.51 (25-Sep-2003) X-URL: http://www.ultrafunk.com/products/popcorn/ X-Priority: 3 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2005 19:20:31 +0100 From: Cactus Data <cactus at cactus.dk> To: gustav at cactus.dk Subject: æøå Reply-To: cactusdata at myrealbox.com /gustav >>> Erwin.Craps at ithelps.be 15-03-2005 14:44:33 >>> I seem to tumbled into a unusual situation A Belgian customer of mine is starting a Company in Spain and will be living there in 6 months or so. During that period he will use two ADSL intenet connections. One in Belgium one in Spain. I adviced him to use a .COM domain which forwards his mail to the POP mailbox at his provider in Belgium. So my intention was to leave the pop server as it is, but to let the client change the relay SMTP server depending on the country he is in. The problem is that the Telefonica Spain SMTP server refuses to relay E-mail for which it has not the domain registred. At my knowledge this is very unusual because normaly an ISP only verifies if the user is on the provider network. I've been told there are free SMTP servers out there, but I don't trust that. Any other solution or paid SMTP servers?
