Bev,
this is the error message I get when I try to post to rsam:

A News (NNTP) error occurred: mail: RCPT
(554 5.7.1
: Relay access denied)

after I "OK" the above, I get

Sending of message failed.
The message could not be posted because connecting to the news server
failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing connections. Please
verify that your news server settings are correct and try again, or else
contact your network administrator.

Clearly there is nothing wrong with the news server because
I'm posting here with the same server. I'm thinking it may
be the moderator-bot. Do I maybe have to log on with my
"real" email address? It's not too big a deal, or maybe
I can use my Yahoo address.

A quick check of the back log of rsam will show that I have
posted there in the past. I would say that I've been having
a problem only in the last 2 months.

I am getting the same message
