If you find out how to make yours work, please let me know (assuming we
have the same problem here). I had been consistently receiving an error
of:
Sending failed:
Unknown error
Unexpected server response to EHLO command.
The server responded: "Unknown command"
The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either
fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message
from the 'outbox' folder.
The following transport protocol was used:
ACS
... when attempting to use Kontact (though I //believe// KMail had
worked for me earlier). Same error? Or something different?
I strongly suspect this is a configuration/communication problem having
to do with how my ISP's SMTP is set up, but haven't followed up with
them and have remained with Evolution for now, and my attempts to narrow
it down on my own have just confused me more. :-)
