Yep, I have enabled SMTP authentication. POP access for the account I'm using wasn't defined, so I turned it all on. Was already trying both the TLS and SSL with 465 and 587. I've gotten this error 99% of the time: SMTP Error! Could not connect to SMTP host. * *Chris Franzen Technology Coordinator Nokomis School District 511 Oberle St. Nokomis, IL 62075
