[IntelMQ-users] Issue with Intelmq SMTPoutput Bots

Tue Oct 18 16:38:59 CEST 2022

The error message you just posted before hints at the fact that (at least now) your SMTP server requires authentication.
Therefore, you would need to configure it there. Which is outside of the scope of intelmq.
This also depends on which SMTP server you use. So, you might have more success for this problem, if you 
check out how this can be achieved on your SMTP server (not sure which one you use? postfix? exim? etc... there are many options).
Hint: a very very simple SMTP server just for testing would be nullmailer.  you can even run this locally, just to test...

Best,
Aaron.
