  1. I am receiving the following error from my CommunityServer logs in regards to sending emails:

    System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004020F): The server rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server response was: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.5.3 - chkuser)

    DiscountASP.NETuses "POP before SMTP" and I'm hoping there's a way I can get around this...any ideas?

    This error means that you are pointing SMTP host to mail.yourdomain.com

    You WILL get inconsistent result, ie. sometimes it work but not others

    Change the SMTP host to localhost.

  5. Hi Bruce


    Thanks for the information.</o:p>
    I changed the pointer to ?localhost? and all worked well.</o:p>
    What threw me completely was that one website worked and one gave an error.</o:p>
    Some information in the knowledgebase regarding this error would have saved me a lot of wasted time.</o:p>
    Thanks again</o:p>

  6. Hello Bruce
    </o:p>
    I am running the same application on two separate DASP accounts.
    Both applications are using the same web.config file with only the ?connection? and ?email? names/passwords changed appropriately.
    I am receiving the following error message from ?ONE? of my DiscountASP hosted domains. ?rcpthosts #5.5.3 ?chkuser?
    </o:p>
    The error occurs during the ?password retrieval? module, but strangely, only on ONE of the applications/accounts.
    </o:p>
    I have read the knowledgebase article covering Microsoft Access configuration.(This is not the answer)
    </o:p>
    I have tested my applications using the exact same user account (user_name/password/email_address), ONE application sends the retrieved information (as expected), while the other application produces the error.
    If both of the applications were producing the error, I would suspect that I had missed something, however, with the error only occurring in one of the applications, I suspect that the DASP accounts have been set-up differently, can you help.
    </o:p>
    Thanks
