Test email address (mercury mail server)

HI
I'm trying to test all email accounts i have created in my email server,( P45) an error message comes up say : An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded : we do not relay non-local mail, sorry….Please check the message recipients and try again. What should i do at this point ? Thank you so much for your time.

Re: Test email address (mercury mail server)

Check that you do not have a firewall/anti-virus that is hampering the mail function. Also check your Mercury settings on pg 38 are correct.

Re: Test email address (mercury mail server)

Hi

I was trying to configure mercury mail server ( on page 38 ).

I have done step 3, although i edit file < file-home>/MercuryMail/MERCURY.BK2 instead of MERCURY.INI

Step 4 Add the following line just below the words " localhost.com :localhost.com" in the file. I couldn't find these words in the file, i could only find some words like :
[Domains]
localhost: localhost
localhost: localhost

I was wondering if that's the same. I'm not sure if it's because i'm using Vista system.
Thank you so much

Re: Test email address (mercury mail server)

If I'm not wrong, it seems like there is a misconfiguration somewhere during installation.

Make sure your XAMPP is not installed in a directory with any space in its path.
