Sky Email issue - 503 Valid RCPT command must precede DATA

[Alan b]

However so far I haven't found any way to add extra mail boxes, is this not possible with Sky?

You have to set up an extra user first and what ever username you choose will become the email address before the @sky.com bit.

Hi there

Exactly in the same boat as t-pol except with another email account. Don't know what to do and desperate!!!!!

If when you try to send mail you are receiving an error with the following
message: "503 valid RCPT command must precede DATA" then you need to
configure your email client to authenticate automatically by checking the
"my server requires authentication" box in your email configuration.

this is what i got of a website that i googled

Well after lots of problems I now seem to be able to receive and send e-mails but Tech Support are useless.
