Hello,

We are facing some issues after upgrading Email Engine from 6.3 (patch 14)
to 7.1 (patch 1) on our test and dev instances. After upgrade, email engine
is unable to send mail. Mails just remain in the queue with 'Send Message'
status set as 'Yes'. 'AR System Email Error Logs' form and 'stderr.log' show
the below mentioned error:

SEVERE: null
javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException
at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:306)
at com.bmc.arsys.emaildaemon.SenderModule.openTransport(SenderModule.java
:409)
at com.bmc.arsys.emaildaemon.SenderModule.doWork(SenderModule.java:188)
at com.bmc.arsys.emaildaemon.ThreadBase.run(ThreadBase.java:288)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Previously on 6.3 version we were able to send mails using the same email
configuration (SMTP). The email server is a Linux box with Sendmail 8.13.1.

We tried the below mentioned troubleshooting steps as well:
- Tried changing application password specified in server information and
email engine.
- The username and password used in email configuration can successfully
send emails from outlook client.
- Tried using different users for sending mail in email configuration.
- Tried reinstalling Email Engine and AR Server.
- Tried installing Email Engine on a separate box.
- Tried using different JDK versions 1.5 and 1.6 then reinstalled AR Server
and Email Engine.

In addition, generated email debug log that showed email engine was able to
connect to the mail server. Not sure, why the authentication fails with "535
5.7.0 authentication failed" error. The error seems to be from mail server.

Please advice.

OS: Windows 2000 Server SP4
DB: MS SQL Server 2000
AR Server version: 7.1 Patch 1
Email Engine version: 7.1 Patch 1
Java: 1.5.0_12

Thanks,
Manu
