I can't send e-mails with one of my accounts

Asked by Alvaro Sancho Nieto

Binary package hint: evolution

One of the SMTP servers (alu.umh.es) needs TLS and uses port 587. It works with this settings in my htc android phone. I wasn't able to change the port, is it possible? I don't know the authentication method

In the server settings you can add

:587

to the end of the servername. E.g:

mail.somewhere.como:587

and it should work.

Can you help with this problem?
