Server 2003 behaved the same way. Eureka! The FROM: address must match the user address entered in Outbound Security.

I didn’t make the connection to your “fake” email address blog entry AND I assumed that the FROM: could be ANY actual BPOS user.

Hi Jim,

I have followed both the instructions from BPOS and your notes above on a Windows Server 2008 sp2 32 bit server that we have also installed the Directory Sync tool on. I am not having any luck getting email to go out. I am always getting a .BAD email with:
Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 5.7.1 Client does not have permissions to send as this sender

Of interest is that the LogFiles\SMTPsvc1\log file is not being created so I suspect there is some issue with the 2008 SMTP service. It appears that the service is not even attempting to contact BPOS, the failure is internal to the Server 2008 SMTP service. I have spent too much time on this configuration that I think I will try setting up the service on one of our Server 2003 domain controllers and see if it behaves as expected there. My feeling is it will work just fine there. Pity, as I was hopping that all email functions would be on one server.

Thanks for your guidance and I am glad to hear it is working for some.

Tim

This was a life saver for us when we discovered _after_ our BPOS migration that our ERP system did not have an option for using SSL. Thank you!

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this it worked perfectly for me on a different version on the software. The software was supposed to support my operating system but every version I downloaded gave me the same “OS not supported” error.

Alias is a good solution for devices/appliances on the network. Do you have a solution for an application server who has to send email using actual (real) internal email account?

My understanding is that you will get the error “does+not+have+permission+to+send” if the sender account does not math the account or an alias the account used for the TLS session.

@Shaun: I finally got around to adding the entry (http://jimjacob.com/2010/05/24/send-email-to-bpos-from-a-fake-email-address/) on how to do that. It’s actually pretty simple.

Hi Jim,

Had the same issue with Jason. How do you send emails that are not actual accounts?

@Jason: It is possible to send from “fake” addresses – meaning email addresses that are not actual accounts. I sent you an email telling you how to do that. I’ll write up an entry tonight about that. It was actually on my to-do list.
