Why can I send E-mail when Im connected to the Internet from outside of OSU (e.g. using AOL, CompuServe, etc.)?
[Outside-Mail] Our E-mail server is configured to treat any connection from outside of OSU and/or Columbus Road Runner (including Insight Communications Road Runner service in Columbus) as an “external” E-mail source. If you are considered an external E-mail source, our server will deny you the ability to send E-mail to anyone outside of our server and perhaps even prevent you from sending messages to local recipients. In particular, our server will block your attempts to send E-mail under any/all of the following conditions: • Using external SMTP server (NOT smtp.ecr6.ohio-state.edu), E-mail return address set to local departmental E-mail address (e.g. ce_jones@chbmeng.ohio-state.edu, ms_smith@matsceng.ohio-state.edu, brown@ecr6.ohio-state.edu, etc.) – you either need to change your return E-mail address to correspond to the network associated with the SMTP server you are using, or change the SMTP server you are using to our local server (smtp.ecr6.ohio-state.edu) • Using local SMTP s
