Alex,

This is an error from the SMTP server saying that you're not authorized to relay mail. This is generally the default configuration these days, cause otherwise, the SMTP server would be abused by spammers.

Relaying is defined as sending mail where neither the From nor To addresses are the SMTP host itself.

You need to talk to your admininstrator and get your Oracle server box added to the list of valid relays for the SMTP server. This is a configuration change on the SMTP server, not the database server.

Hope that helps,

-Mark
