------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Nov 23 19:22:00 +0000 2009 ------- Problem seems to be the same on Linux since OOo 3.0 (also tested with 3.1.1): Reproduction: 1) Configure Tools->Options-Writer->E-Mail merge (do not know exact english labels) with SMTP server 2) Enter authentication details (SMTP AUTH) 3) Test will result in "network ok", but "search for SMTP server" failed It is no matter, if I use an external relay server or my own LAN one. But - and this is strange - if I switch off "server needs authentication" then: 3) Test will result in "network ok", but "search for SMTP server" succeeds! So this actually seems to be a general authentication issue in smtplib.py? This is the output I get, when I try to send merged e-mails with authentication switched on: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ snip ~~~~~~~~~~ <class 'smtplib.SMTPSenderRefused'>: (501, '5.5.4 BASE64 decoding error', u'[email protected]'), traceback follows /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.1/program/python-core-2.6.1/lib/smtplib.py:698 in function sendmail() [raise SMTPSenderRefused(code, resp, from_addr)] /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.1/program/mailmerge.py:193 in function sendMailMessage() [self.server.sendmail(sendermail, truerecipients, msg.as_string())] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ snip ~~~~~~~~~~ Hope this helps ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
