Environment

Autosys R12.x

Resolution

Your SMTP server is rejecting the connection.
You will need to engage your SMTP admin to understand why.
Possible reasons:

1. the SMTP server requires authentication (currently, you are not using any)
2. your SMTP server has a white list that the Autosys server is not on
3. Your SMTP server requires SSL which is not supported by Autosys at this time.
4. The NotifySMTPFromAddress parameter in your config.$AUTOSERV must be a valid email address with valid domain (Ex: [email protected])

You might want to try testing outside of Autosys with the below article.
This should be done from the Autosys server where you have configured email notifications to be sent.
