Issue Summary
I'm trying to send an html newsletter within a smtp authenticated address.
I always get the following error:
warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 571 sorry, sender address has invalid format (#5.7.1 - chkuser) in C:\Inetpub\cidata\modules\mimemail\mimemail.module on line 331.
Any ideas on how to fix it ?
I'm on a windows server, does anyone managed to have all these modules working ok ?
Cheers

#1
I deactivated the smtp authentication on the server and the module, since I've heard smtp authentication doesn't works well with mimemail.
However I have still the same error...
#2
5.7.1 indicates you don't have permission to access the SMTP relay. Since you are using Windows Server, make sure the user you are using to send the e-mail has permission to use the SMTP server. Look at the properties of the outgoing SMTP server to verify the security and authentication methods. (I'm not sure if you were referring to the web server or the SMTP server.)
#3
We might need to check in mimemail extensions after latest dev update. providing more details (transcrypt?).
Please understand that your local site needs a full standards compliant mail setup - including the local hostname (mailname) being fully qualified.
So all in all: This is a local malconfiguration.
Moving the issue into support request and marked it fixe.
