Hi Peter, Thank you for your reply.
I think it would be good if there were a way to get Growl to work with SMTP servers not requiring authentication. Here is the complete output to the Console: 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM [0x0-0x13ea3e9].com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp[13130] Traceback (most recent call last): 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM [0x0-0x13ea3e9].com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp[13130] File "/Library/PreferencePanes/Growl.prefPane/Contents/Resources/ GrowlHelperApp.app/Contents/PlugIns/MailMe.growlView/Contents/ Resources/simple-mailer.py", line 55, in <module> 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM [0x0-0x13ea3e9].com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp[13130] smtp.login(username, password) 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM [0x0-0x13ea3e9].com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp[13130] File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/smtplib.py", line 589, in login 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM [0x0-0x13ea3e9].com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp[13130] smtplib.SMTPAuthenticationError: (334, 'UGFzc3dvcmQ6') 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM GrowlHelperApp[13130] (MailMe) WARNING: Could not send message using simple-mailer; it returned exit status 1. 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM GrowlHelperApp[13130] (MailMe) WARNING: Could not send email message "Preview" to address [email protected] 5/07/11 10:37:04 AM GrowlHelperApp[13130] (MailMe) description of notification: This is a preview of the MailMe display On Jul 5, 10:29 am, Peter Hosey <[email protected]> wrote: > On Jul 4, 2011, at 19:16:34, Daniel M wrote: > > > Using Growl version: 1.2.2 and trying to use MailMe > > > I am getting error: > > MailMe: No Suitable SMTP Account Found error message. > > > I have definitely configured an SMTP account in Mail and restarted Growl, > > but it would appear that Growl does not check mail for SMTP servers, but > > checks in Keychain instead. > > If by “check mail” you mean “check Mail's Preferences”, that's exactly what > it does: It gets the server name and username from Mail's Preferences.
