hmmm. ... thanks for the info. however i am still confused.
I set up my k9 exactly as you suggested via the link. no port other than 25
worked for me for sending mails. i dont think there is a port blocking problem
however. and both live.com and yahoo.com say explicitly that their smptp
settings must be configured for port 465 or 587
please answer one more thing .. since i am using port-25 (even while choosing
TLS) on k9 and no extra special settings, are my passwords sent using plain
text ?
If you're using TLS for the transaction, there is no guarantee your password
is encrypted. It only encrypts the conversation between your mail client and
the server, no matter what port you're configured for.
To have the password encrypted, there is an option to encrypt the password but
the server must support that.
Do you have smtp authentication configured?
