If this error is appearing when the email client is trying to log into VPOP3, then you can check the VPOP3 'SECURITY.LOG' file which may contain more information, such as an invalid password, unknown username, etc. (This information is not returned in the SMTP session because it would help an attacker). text/html 2025-05-21T07:57:18+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.pscs.co.uk/how_to:allowing_mail_relay_through_vpop3?rev=1747814238&do=diff How To Allow Mail Relay Through VPOP3 If you are allowing remote access into VPOP3 to collect mail then you may also want those remote users to be able to send their outgoing mail through VPOP3 as well. This is more complex than allowing users to collect mail, because, by default, SMTP connections are not authenticated. This means that when someone tries to send a message through VPOP3, VPOP3 doesn't know who that user is.

It is designed to reduce 'spoofing' of email addresses. For instance, if you receive an email message from your bank, your mail software can check that it came from an IP address authorised to send mail from your bank, and treat the message with suspicion if it didn't come from an authorised IP address. text/html 2018-11-14T10:45:49+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.pscs.co.uk/how_to:troubleshooting_tips?rev=1542192349&do=diff Troubleshooting Tips Telnet One of the most basic, and useful, tools for troubleshooting email systems is a Telnet client.
