FallowEarth 3 Report post · CID: 22854767255 Posted January 23, 2006 I've never used an exchange server () but I know that most SMTP servers authenticate by IP address....could it be that your exchange server is rejecting the connection you are on outside of your LAN?

jamaicarocks 0 Report post · CID: 19086521587529 Posted January 24, 2006 I guess .... so there is a section for smtp ...i would most likely have to turn it off where it blocks outside ip address ..but I dont see anything like that ... know what to look for really ?
