550 5.1.0 missing or malformed local part

Recieved: 550 5.1.0 < Missing or malformed local part

I had a similar issue yesterday.  Outlook configured with IMAP worked fine but anything sent through Roundcube was returning a 550 error.  In my configuring plugins and other settings, i had some how copied over my main.inc.php  with an older version that didn't have my SMTP setting configured with authentication.

Not entirely sure it will fix your issue but thought i'd offer up my experience.

Thanks for the advice - it sounds like we have the same issue

I made a few changes to my main.inc.php file
_________________________________________________________
// the mail host chosen to perform the log-in
// leave blank to show a textbox at login, give a list of hosts
// to display a pulldown menu or set one host as string.
// To use SSL/TLS connection, enter hostname with prefix ssl:// or tls://
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'home.homeserver.com';


// use this host for sending mails.
// to use SSL connection, set ssl://smtp.host.com
// if left blank, the PHP mail() function is used
// Use %h variable as replacement for user's IMAP hostname
$rcmail_config['smtp_server'] = 'home.homeserver.com';
______________________________________________________________

now when I log in and try to send an email I get the following error:

Roundcube error : "smtp error 550 failed to add recipient,"

and hmailserver is giving me the following error:

Hmailserver error: Sent:530 SMTP authentication is required.


I've tried using the ssl:// but that wont let me log into webmail client.
to get SSL:// to work do I need to open up more ports?  



it's progress - I believe your idea solved the malformed issue - now I just need to figure out the authentication problem.

set the user settings for smtp

107   // SMTP username (if required) if you use %u as the username RoundCube
108   // will use the current username for login
109   $rcmail_config['smtp_user'] = '%u';
110   
111   // SMTP password (if required) if you use %p as the password RoundCube
112   // will use the current user's password for login
113   $rcmail_config['smtp_pass'] = '%p';

thanks so much for this, I was having the same 550 unable to find recipient message and I couldn't send emails. Your changes fixed the problem immediately.

Thanks.
