How do I set the name of the sender for all emails on SMTP windows 2008 rc2?
My emails are coming froom noreply#mydomain.com but I can't figure out how to set the name that they come from.
Are you referring to your mail client? or to the mail server?
If you are referring to the mail client you are using, add the email address as in your contact addresses and change the name.

I was trying to create a SMTP server using nodejs module "smtp-server" and referred this: http://nodemailer.com/extras/smtp-server/. When I tried to send mail using nodemailer to server it went properly but when I tried to send mail to gmail account it was never receiver there.
I set up dkim and SPF for my smtp server and checked them using online checkers and my code is same as before as I mentioned here: Could not send mail to users email using my smtp server on website
Assumption:
For sending mail to gmail account I assumed that server automatically redirects mail to gmail server if I put my gmail account in "to:" section of message. Later I studied multiple article and found that there is some thing like outbounding which is used to redirect mail to other server. Kindly tell me how can I set it up for smtp-server module.
I am using office 365 SMTP settings to send mail from ubuntu command line. I am able to send emails without any issues, but I need that sent emails to show in Sent Items folder, which it isn't doing. Is there any option to enable this?
Note: I know, BCC the same mail and set inbound redirection rule to Sent Items folder will work in Office 365. But this is not a proper way. Gmail will save sent mails in Sent Items folder without any redirection.
This is expected behaviour with SMTP. Some clients like Gmail are using IMAP to create a copy and save it in the sent folder but it's not possible to do this using only SMTP.
I have a SMTP server set up for my domain in IIS6. The mail sends just fine from the site, there are no errors. But the email is never delivered to the recipient. I checked my mail folder on the server and the emails are stuck in \inetpub\mailroot\drop
Any idea why they wouldn't be getting sent out? This is new territory for me and I'm not having much luck finding a solution.
Since the mail is making its way into the mail folder, I assume the problem lies somewhere in my SMTP server settings
There could be a couple of reasons for this and it sounds to me that your provider has blocked port 25 which means your server can't send the emails, hence, they are still in the queue.
Your best bet is to use a 3rd party SMTP service such as Amazon SES or Mandrill (free), you can either configure your application to send mail directly through these providers, or, you can continue to use IIS SMTP and configure smart host, this will tell IIS SMTP to not bother trying to send email directly, but instead relay it through the 3rd party SMTP service.

I'm setting up a Jenkins server. I got it sending emails through my gmail apps account. The problem is when I receive an email from Jenkins the sender's name is empty (I just see the email address used to authenticate with gmail's smtp), which makes it difficult to set a filter or distinguish Jenkins emails from the rest.
Thanks.
Can't be done. SMTP servers of Gmail override this info.
I have created a document library in sharepoint 2007 and i have enabled incoming email settings to the doc library. When I am trying to send an email from workflow I am getting the error...
System.Net.Mail.SmtpFailedRecipientException: Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: 5.7.1 Unable to relay for EmailDocLibrary#xxx.com
at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(MailMessage message)

Do i need to setup anything before sending an email. Please help me.
Thanks
Your outgoing mail server isn't setup for relaying from just any address. Checkwith your email server adminto make sure that you are able to send outgoing messages with the email address you have.
