error connection to outgoing mail

Can u confirm if this problem still exists

Hi,

it's a problem of port,
when I use the port 587 for smtp.gmail.com, I have this message (SMTP server Error An error occurred:(10060, 'Operation timed out'))
And When I use the port 25 and I uncheck the box SSL, SMTP Test Connection Was Successful

Hi,

I used to configure an account outlook but I have an error when testing outgoing connection:
                   SMTP Server Login Error
                   An error occurred : (535, '5.7.0 Error: authentication failed: authentication failure')

I use windows XP and the latest version of poweremail

outgoing:
     * server: smtp.wanadoo.fr
     * port: 25
     *SSL: I test with SSL and without it but I have the same error
     * email Id: <email address hidden>
     * password: mypassword
     * user name: <email address hidden>
     * user: administrator
     * format: HTML otherwide text

incoming:
    * server: pop.domain.fr
    * port: 110
    * SSL: without SSL
    * user name: <email address hidden>
    * password: mypassword

I don't know what's the problem, please help me to resolve this problem

thx

It says authentication failed.
So it should be an authentication issue.

Can you try your username without the @xx part?

no, I have the same error

make sure there are no exptra spaces in the username or password

no extra spaces in the username and password

Hi,

about the error displayed in outgoing connection test:
             SMTP Server Login Error
             An error occurred : (535, '5.7.0 Error: authentication failed: authentication failure')

Is there a relationship between information on the SMTP server in the configuration file openerp server and data entries in order to accounts module poweremail

I have in the configuration file:
smtp_password = False
smtp_port = 25
smtp_server = smtp.wanadoo.fr
smtp_user = False
smtp_ssl = False

and information in order to accounts poweremail:
outgoing:
     * server: smtp.wanadoo.fr
     * port: 25
     *SSL: I test with SSL and without it but I have the same error
     * email Id: <email address hidden>
     * password: mypassword
     * user name: <email address hidden>
     * user: administrator
     * format: HTML otherwide text

incoming:
    * server: pop.domain.fr
    * port: 110
    * SSL: without SSL
    * user name: <email address hidden>
    * password: mypassword

please help me to resolve this problem
thx

I can't configure any account, gamil or outlook

@boussemi:

some things to try on python command line:

import smtplib
serv = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com',587)
serv.ehlo()
serv.starttls()
serv.ehlo()
serv.login('username','password')

import imaplib
ser = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com',993)
ser.login('username','password')

Please paste the result

I modifie in the function out_connection of poweremail_core.py?

Nope,

Just open python command line also called IDLE in M$ platforms and type in the commands one by one i sent you

I enter in command line this instruction:

import smtplib
>>> serv = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
    serv = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
  File "C:\Python25\lib\smtplib.py", line 244, in __init__
    (code, msg) = self.connect(host, port)
  File "C:\Python25\lib\smtplib.py", line 310, in connect
    raise socket.error, msg
error: (10060, 'Operation timed out')

Ok,

That explains it.
Its your system issue or network issue which does not allow a connection to the server.
Not a poweremail issue

the problem is in smtplib.py

what can I do in this case?

I am not a windows expert.

I am extremely sorry that you are one of those less privileged members of the society still stuck on a Micro$oft Operating system

Cheers!

when I use an outlook account:

 import smtplib
>>> serv = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.wanadoo.fr', 25)
>>> serv.ehlo()
(250, 'mwinf2827.orange.fr\nPIPELINING\nSIZE 14365491\nETRN\nAUTH PLAIN LOGIN\nAUTH=PLAIN LOGIN\nENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\n8BITMIME')

this error has a relation with my system issue or network ?

please execute further statements and try logging into the system
