Re: [vps-mail] Relaying denied

[Jerry Gapinski - Acuity Creative <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark,

I had a similar problem. On the VPS1 I removed the domain from the
local-host-name file and make sure it was in the one on the VPS2. I had my
DNS correct. 

Run the command sinfo. If both servers have the same hostname, then this may
be the problem. They changed my hostname on the VPS2 to USER.iserver.net.

Hope this helps,

Jerry
