I am trying to send email to external recipient using my hMail Server email address. I have written code in c#. Code also deployed IIS website where same server hmail server exists. So code and email server on the same server.
If I send to my hmailserver domain (I mean my domain) it works. Only if I am trying to send email external id using my smtp server. it is not working.

You are sending FROM a gmail address
hMailsevrer correctly sees that as an external address, and so this is external to external
As the script is one the same server, you can change the IP range setting for localhost to allow external to external without SMTP auth.
Be aware that any hostile script on your machine (ie a Trojan) can then do the same.
Better if your code can authenticate with a local account, and send from a local domain, not gmail.

also... unless you you are using GMail relays then you are likely to have problems (being seen as spam) anyway as sending from=@gmail from your own server will fail the gmail SPF and DKIM tests set by gmail.

I dont see a problem with misbehaviour. You have EXTERNAL TO EXTERNAL REQUIRES AUTHENTICATION set and your log shows

So it is working as configured. You need to tell your script to authenticate.
That is, of course, assuming that that screen shot is for for the IP RANGE incorporating 192.168.1.254. But we cant tell because for some reason you have blanked it out! (What's the point of a screenshot if you are going to blank out the important bits?)

It is not IP RANGE incorporating 192.168.1.254. It is External IP of router. I also have other IP rangers like "My Computer" LIP 127.0.0.1 to UIP 127.0.0.1 and "Internet" LIP 0.0.0.0 to UIP 255.255.255.255.
Do you want me to specify IP RANGE 192.168.1.254?

I added IP RANGE for 192.168.1.254. Still I am getting same error.

Have you set your script to authenticate?? Have you set the IP RANGE to NOT authenticate for EXTERNAL to EXTERNAL? One or the other....

Thanks @mattg.
It worked.
You said, "Be aware that any hostile script on your machine (ie a Trojan) can then do the same."
Is there anyway I can stop trojan not use this. I have already McAfee running machine.
If I use captcha on my website will stop this send emails?

It really is best to get your website to authenticate
