e-mail forwarding not working

« on: January 07, 2004, 09:20:46 AM »

I'm having trouble forwarding my client's e-mail. When I test and forward the mail to my account it works fine, but when I change it to point to their (working) e-mail address, they get this message:

Quote

The host 'email.mydomain.org' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'email.mydomain.org', Server: 'email.mydomain.org', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

Any ideas on how to fix this????

Does it actually show 'email.mydomain.org'?

Are you using their full email address when you setup the forward?

It should be:

forwardername@clientswebsite.com -> client@clientsotheraddress.com

When its properly setup.

You dont want to just put the domain name there etc, you need the username as well.

Yes, it's set up just as in your example, and it works to my e-mail address but not to my client's.....
