Topic: Cannot send a mail with new ISP

[fpausp]

Hi all,

I switched to a new ISP and like to use his smtp-server to send mails.

The servername is:

bsmtp.A1.net
Port 587; TLS; SMTP-Auth

When I tried to use the new smtp-server with sme7 or sme8 I got an error like:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at domain.lan.
I tried to deliver a bounce message to this address, but the bounce bounced!

<office@domain.at>:
Connected to 127.0.0.1 but sender was rejected.
Remote host said: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first

--- Below this line is the original bounce.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at domain.at.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

I have tested the credentials with thunderbird and was able to send a mail directly via the server (bsmtp.A1.net, Port:587, TLS), but not with sme7 or sme8 ?

As a try, have a look at bug 6538 with a manual workaround in comments 8 & 9.

Let us know whether that helps.

No Luck, is sme8 supporting TLS ?

No Luck, is sme8 supporting TLS ?

It supports TLS, but on port 465, not port 587. Can you get your ISP to enable SMTPS on port 465?

To get support added to SME8 you would need to open a New Feature Request in the bug tracker. We would need to rewrite the smtp auth proxy to use Net::SSLGlue::SMTP rather than Net::SMTP::SSL.
