Hi Vivek, What DNS servers are you using in SM and on your server's NIC?

You'll probably want to check if your server OS is able to resolve the MX:

On your server open cmd.exe (command prompt):

Type nslookup
PS C:\Users\Administrator> nslookup

In nslookup type:
set type=MX

And then type: yahoo.com

Like this:
Default Server:  one.one.one.one
Address:  1.1.1.1 
> set type=MX 
> yahoo.com 

You should have an answer like this:
Server:  one.one.one.one Address:  1.1.1.1
Non-authoritative answer:
yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mta5.am0.yahoodns.net
yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mta6.am0.yahoodns.net
yahoo.com MX preference = 1, mail exchanger = mta7.am0.yahoodns.net

That means your OS dns configuration seems okay.

Next step would be to check the DNS configuration of SmarterMail. For this is depends the version of SmarterMail you're using.

On v16/v17 I guess it's in the general settings. If the primary/secondary dns settings are empty, SM should use your system DNS configuration.
If there are values set, you should check they are working DNS servers.
You could set them to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 and see if the problem still occurs.

Also maybe is a good idea to check if DNS caching is enabled.
If enabled it's possible that SmarterMail keep in cache wrong DNS answers. I never really understood how the DNS cache works so I prefer to leave it disabled for safety.

Edit: Also it can be the same issue as:

Looks like If the primary DNS server is not working, SM doesn't use the second one (not tested myself though)

Your access to this mail system has been rejected due to the sending MTA's poor reputation. If you believe that this failure is in error, please contact the intended recipient via alternate means.

Vivek,

That message usually indicates that your mail server's IP address is on a blacklist and is being rejected by the receiving mail server because of it.

Vivek, check here to see if your server IP is on any RBLs: http://multirbl.valli.org/. Also check here to see what your server reputation is: https://talosintelligence.com/reputation_center. I'm going to take an educated guess and say that if your server has a poor reputation, you probably have a compromised account which needs to be taken care of. If that is the case, my company, Mail's Best Friend, can help you find out which accounts are compromised with free software that we offer. Please check your server IP and let us know what you find and if you would like additional help with this. Thanks and good luck!

Are you seeing this in your mail client? If yes, you may want to check that you have your outgoing server set to authenticate.

That is not something you set in SmarterMail. You have to set it in your mail client (E.g. Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) Which mail client are you using?
