Adrian: Direct from Google's config instructions:
17. Enter smtp.gmail.com as the Server Name and set the Port to 587. 18. Select User name and password and enter your full email address (including @gmail.com or @your_domain.com) in the User Name field. 19. Select TLS from the Use secure connection radio buttons and click OK. You need to use TLS - only CF8 or above I think. Can authenticate to smtp.gmail.com without it? I don't think you need SSL, as that is only if you are connecting to imap.gmail.com (again, according to config instructions). We use cfmail with Google Apps, works great except sometimes we get connection issues. >Can anyone say whether useTLS="true" and/or useSSL="true" are needed in >cfmail to send via a Google hosted email account? > >The following works for me: > ><cfmail > server="smtp.gmail.com" > port="465" > username="#VARIABLES.username#" > password="#VARIABLES.password#" > useSSL="true" >>Message</cfmail> > >But blog posts I've read say useTLS is needed. > >Does specifying the port change anything? > >Adrian Lynch >http://www.halestorm.co.uk/ >http://www.adrianlynch.co.uk/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:313280 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
