Dear all,

since several days I can't send emails any more. I always receive the following error message:

Sending of message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <xxxx@nordnet.fr>: Relay access denied.

In the outgoing server setting the port is set to 25. (But I also tried 587 and 465) For finding a solution I tried all recommendations in your support page, but unfortunately without success.

Do you have any further ideas ? Many thanks in advance. Regards Christine

What are the rest of your SMTP settings? Such as authentication and security. You do need to set password and either SSL/TLS or STARTTLS

And use port of 465 or 587

The recommended settings are: smtp-auth.nordnet.fr on port 587. STARTTLS, normal password, User Name = email address.
