Title: SMTP Auth Proxy STARTTLS command first
Post by: edeganay on November 09, 2010, 06:53:34 PM

Hello,

Due to ISP change, I have to change my ISP smtp settings t obe able to send emails from my webmail.

I decided to use the SMTP settings provided by my domain hoster, or gmail account credentials, meaning SMTP and TLS

I changed things if the server manager / Configuration / email / sending email settings.
I setup SMTP Server address, activated authentification, provided ID and password.

But, no email is going out.
I got a failure notice with following error :
Connected to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx but sender was rejected.
Remote host said: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. i19sm1333722wbe.5


And I have no clue to what to do.

Someone for any help ?

thanks !
Edd

Perhaps http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5997#c16

Default for sme7.5 & 7.5.1 is to require TLS before Auth (as that is more secure).

If you want AUTH without TLS (which is pre SME 7.5 functionality), you need to upgrade to SME7.5.1 and issues this command

Code: [Select]

config setprop qpsmtpd TlsBeforeAuth 0
signal-event email-update
It can be changed back to the sme7.5 & greater default with

Code: [Select]

config setprop qpsmtpd TlsBeforeAuth 1
signal-event email-update

No, that concerns authentication between the client PC and the SME server. edeganay's problem concerns authentication between the SME server and the ISP's SMTP server.

I think if edeganay changes the port to smtps (465) mail will go through.

Oops, a little bit of brain fog on my part, sorry.
