  • SMTP Auth

    From Robert Wolfe@1:261/20 to All on Wed Apr 1 19:44:38 2020
    Hi all!

    Using smtp2go for a smarthost and for some reason when I go to try send my messages, I get the following error:

    200401 19:43 550 relay access denied - please authenticate

    How do I pass my username and password on the 'bbbs bmtp r' command line to authenticate to send?

    'user,password' you mean? Let me see if I can try that again.

    The problem of course is very few sites allow straight smtp these days. It is all SSL
