cannot send external mail

[Madhur Ahuja]

Hello

I am running RH9.0 with sendmail.
I have setup sendmail to relay the outgoing mail to
smart_host which is mail.spymac.com.

The SMTP server doesnt require authentication.

This is the output of sendmail -vqf

Running /var/spool/mqueue/i9DJSO3q002728 (sequence 1 of 1)
<mad...@yahoo.com>... Connecting to mail.spymac.com. via relay...
220 Welcome to the Spymac SMTP Server ( Exim v4 )
>>> EHLO madhur.localdomain
250-mail8 Hello madhur.localdomain [220.224.16.85]
250-SIZE 26214400
250-PIPELINING
250-AUTH LOGIN
250 HELP
>>> QUIT
221 mail8 closing connection
<mad...@yahoo.com>... Deferred: Temporary AUTH failure
Closing connection to mail.spymac.com.

I am able to access my mail in Windoze.

Please search a bit in this group. The topic about acting Sendmail as a
client with AUTH was just handled in different threads.

That is an IMAP/POP3 topic.
