Hal Eisen said on 2006-02-20: (permalink) I have solved this problem myself. The issue was that Evolution was not sending an FQDN as the argument to the HELO directive during the SMTP conversation. When I edited /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts then I was able to send email just fine.
Hi, Hal I have encountered the smtp problem because my isp smtp server has some kind of anti-spam rule that will reject the private network IP address like 192.168.0.xx. and we use the NAT to goto the smtp. so i think i should let the HELO command use FWDN as the parameter not the IP. could you kindly tell me how did you modified your /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts file? -- Evolution cannot send email using encrypted SMTP server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27086 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
