Yesterday after getting MAU's reply, I went to the smtp settings again, tried to send a mail using the FM account again and the server gave a different error than the warning message it gave previously. It was some "temporary deferral error". I tried again later and same error. Then last night, after googling about the warning message problem, I read someone saying it's due to checking the Perform RFC 2554 authentication in SMTP settings. So I just tested with removing that check mark as well as the "require secure authentication". The server gave the normal authentication required error. I checked the "Perform SMTP authentication" again and the message went thru without anyu problem. I did not change anything at all. What happened? I had tried all this and all possible SMTP settings last 3 weeks and never was able to send and now the message went as if nothing had happened. Strange thing. What was the problem and how did it get solved automatically? Even on this page someone said that this problem went away automatically: http://www.ritlabs.com/en/forum/read.php?FID=4&TID=4026&MID=15532&phrase_id=120292 -- Best regards, Deboo ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.98.04 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
