    Yes, it fails because the Domino server has been setup to not accept SMTP relays from unknown sources (to avoid spam).

    Contact the admin of the Domino server so that you can set up Domino to accept relay from machines running your application (if they can be uniquely identified), or from internal hosts (if that’s the case), and/or combined with a SMTP account to login to SMTP.
