Help I Can't Send Mail! I'm getting the following error message(s). Server Error: 550 {Relaying Denied}.

The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'Username@Domain.Com'. Subject 'Original Message Subject Line.......', Account: 'Username@Limo.Net', Server: 'smtp.Limo.Net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 5.7.1 <Username@Domain.Com>... Relaying denied. Please check your mail first.', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79.

NOTE: You need to setup you E-mail Client to allow authentication & POP before sending if you are manually setting up your PC! To prevent SPAM on the Limo.Net Network it is necessary to pickup/recieve mail BEFORE you will be allowed to SEND mail. {Eudora users: Shift Click Send/Receive for options. Outlook Express users: Click the small triangle next to the send/receive button. Then do a receive all. Then either a Send all or Send/Receive.) Once you have fully authenticated yourself you do not have to do so again for 15 minutes. So if you set you mail program to Check for mail every 14 minutes you will not have to take the extra steps while on-line.o help stop SPAM being sent thru Limo.Net's SMTP server we now require SMTP Authentication. This means that you need to have "Authentication Allowed" for the sending of e-mail, and this is the default in many newer e-mail clients. Consult your e-mail program for specifics on how to accomplish this if you have questions. You may not be able to send e-mail if this option is disabled.
NOTE: The outgoing server must be either SMTP.Limo.Net or Mail.Limo.Net any other outgoing mail server will be blocked!
Below are the steps to turn authentication on for Outlook Express 6 and Eudora.
Outlook Express 6
Tools >> Accounts... >> Mail Tab >> Username@Limo.Net >> Properties >> Server Tab >> check the box tha is labeled My Server Requires Authentication.
Eudora
Tools >> Options... >> Sending Mail >> check the box that is labeled Allow Authentication.
How do I Publish my Personal home page using Microsoft Front Page?
FrontPage is discontinued by Microsoft. How does this affect me?
- NOTE: Front Page Extensions are turned OFF by Default. If you want to publish a personal home page using Front Page please send an E-Mail to support with your username and that you would like Front Page support turned on.
- Each user is allowed to publish an individual home page. Your home page URL is http://www.Limo.Net/~username the tilde character{squiggle} is near the 1 on most keyboards.
- Our server supports FrontPage 2000 extensions. Just use the File/Publish Web within Microsoft Front Page.
- In this example I use the username user77
- Specify the location to publish your web as: http://www.limo.net/~user77
- User ID - Your Username
- What is the name if my default home page?
  If you don't specify a specific page the server searches for the first page in the following list.
  ie. http://www.Limo.Net/~username or http://www.Limo.Net/~username/directory/
  
  In order! The fist match will be used!
  index.html {This is also the name used by the system created Welcome Page!}
