Bill Power <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] | |m.au --- Comment #32 from Bill Power <[email protected]> --- I have this problem too in OpenOffice 4.1.2 running on Windows 10. Comments and observations: I have duplicated as best I can the settings for a Thunderbird account that works fine. It is NOT a Gmail account. The settings can't be duplicated exactly as T/bird has SSL/TLS as connection security and "Normal Password" as the authentication method. There is no provision for nominating these settings when configuring the email merge in OO Writer. My port setting for both is 995. If the SMTP Server-name is not preceded by an email address (even a bogus one) followed by a hyphen or the string "smtp://", Test settings... simply hangs and the status display is empty. The check-box "Use secure connection (SSL)" seems to make no difference to the task status I get which is: Establish network connection - Successful (even if my Wifi hardware and software is turned off). Find outgoing mail server - Failed. I have had success with another non-Gmail address using a different ISP and protocol on port 25 - but this is not a practical work-around for me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
