Hello,
This is the "scenario".
I have a Vmware network on which a number of servers (Domain controllers, administrative management servers etc.) are virtualized.
Connected to this network are physical devices such as clients, printers etc.
The entire infrastructure is connected to a managed HUB.
Between the HUB and Internet is a Sophos XG Firewall (116w) and a DSL Modem provided by the provider.
So far all is okay and the clients navigate correctly and also send and receive e-mail.
A management application is installed on an administrative virtual server that uses a small program (blat.exe) to send emails with attachments.
The management application compiles a string and run it, e.g.
blat mail_body_message.txt -to destination@email.com -subject “Email Object” -attach attachment.pdf -f sender@sender_email.com - server server_smtp -u username -pw password
At this point the command is not executed correctly and in the log I find
2023.01.18 08:43:09 (Wed)------------Start of Session-----------------

The SMTP server does not like the name destination@email.com.
Have you set the 'To:' field correctly, or do you need authorization (-u/-pw) ?
The SMTP server response was -> 550 Relay not permitted
>>>putline>>> QUIT
Error: Connection to server was dropped.
2023.01.18 08:43:11 (Wed)-------------End of Session------------------
To check if it is a firewall problem, I disconnected the Sophos XG and connected the network directly to the DSL modem.
Everything is working correctly.
Can I be helped to solve the problem?
Thank You and Best Regards.
