Evolution works fine for receiving mail, but I cant send anything.When i hit "send/receive" itll receive but ask for smtp password every single time. My understanding is that the password is your email password, but it wont accept it.

for like two weeks I have been trying to send email using evolution for some reason I always get the same Code: Could not connect to smtp.gmail.com: Input/output error
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm running Evolution 2.30.3 on fc13.x64 and I've been getting a funny problem for a while, that now really annoys me:
even if the settings for my hotmail account are correct, Evolution will ask for the password every time I log in. Also, since I keep it open, after a while (~30 minutes) it "forgets" somehow the password and asks for the password again. This time, anyway, it won't work and I have to reset Evolution again.
Bonus question: even if hotmail is configured correctly for receiving and sending (smtp.live.com etc.), it won't send email, but will remain stuck on "sending".

I have evolution set up to send emails using gmail's smtp server. I've always been able to do it with no problems, but a couple of days ago I stopped being able to send emails to gmail accounts. I can send emails to other addresses but not gmail. The same happens with my wife's laptop with ubuntu. The only thing I can think of is that we recently moved and thus changed ISP, but I don't see how that's preventing us to send mails specifically to gmail accounts...

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm running 11.04 desktop 64 bit and have smartmontools and mdadm set to send automated test emails at bootup (I have a RAID5 setup).I'm using msmtp with a gmail account. When I'm logged in, I can manually send test emails with both smartmontools and mdadm; neither will send me an email at bootup even though they are set to do so. The msmtp log at bootup has a smtp.gmail.com exitcode=EX_NOHOST.why it can't find the smtp server at bootup but has no problem once I'm logged in and test it manually? Is there some dependency that isn't loading in time at bootup???
View 1 Replies View RelatedHas thunderbird (recent version) have a "TEST" function ? basically, i'm trying to send messages, with 20+ accounts (different emails, but one domain / SMTP server). one account works fine - the other one doesn't. i go to my "outgoing server" & everything is fine - usernames / ports etc..) The settings for each account do show the right outgoing server. If i 'send later' & close down thunderbird, 7 re-open - it asks me for my password again (which it saves), & then it is able to send the email.
QUESTION :- is there a TESt option that will test each & EVERY account in one timeslot ? Ie, will go through each email address - sends an email to itself (the same address), & sends it. it will then try the server again, to see if the email was received. & then give me a single report, of all the incorrect settings.(I've tried this 1 email account half a dozen times tonight & i dont know *WHY* its not sending on the 1st go.. )
I'm looking for a smtp solution that will split all incoming emails and send them to two different servers.
On mail server 1 I have test@example.com
Om mail server 2 (different location than mail server 1) I also have test@example.com
MX-record for example.com should point to mail server 3. Of course there will be a mail server 4 that will do the same as mail server 3. Mail server 3 will receive all incoming mails and forward them to both mail server 1 and 2. This will be a simple and cheap but bullet proof redundancy solution. I'm interested in this solution, have already looked into clusters, backup mx, imap-sync and a ton more of solutions but this is the solution we want. ny one who can point me in the right direction? I've been searching for weeks, the solution exist but I can't find out how to set it up. Not all mail should be forwarded this way, only one example.com, not example2.com or example3.com.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have configured Evolution to use my Gmail account. I am able to read my Gmail, but I have not been able to send email. I have found instructions to do this from several sources, which include the Gmail website and Ubuntu help at HTML Code: [URL]. The instructions from all sources have been consistent:
Instructions for Sending(smtp) Mail from Gmail:
1. Server: smtp.gmail.com
Note: Some ISPs block port 25, if you are having a problem sending mail, substitute smtp.gmail.com:587 for the server information above.
2. Server requires authentication: Checked
3. Security: TLS encryption
4. Authentication: Plain or Login
5. Username: johndoe@gmail.com
I have also tried using port 587 and 465 as alternates. When I try to send an email, there appears to be two stages: it successfully completes the first stage that refers to POP, but gets stuck on the second stage that refers to SMTP.
I have several Gmail accounts. On one of my Ubuntu-running computers (Hardy) Evolution remembers the passwords. Which is a good thing, as I can't remember one of the passwords.
When I'm out and about with my netbook, I like to check my email. But I don't use Evolution on the netbook; I access the Gmail accounts via the web. And because I can't remember the password for one account, I can't check it.
Obviously, on my Hardy desktop, Evolution/Ubuntu remembers the password - so it must be stored on the computer, right? How do I get Ubuntu to tell me the password?
we're switching some of our workstations over to Ubuntu 10.04. For the most part, the change has been good. But.... Evolution just doesn't seem to work very well at all. We're using Google apps with our domain, and our connection is quite slow (512/128 VSAT for ~45 users). Evolution has a lot of problems sending and receiving email. I don't know if it's because of the slow connection, but before, we didn't seem to have problems with Outlook. I'm using the Mail.app on my Mac, and it sending/receiving is slow, but things eventually get through.
On the Ubuntu computers, Evolution really seems to get hung up on sending. It just sits there. I've had one user where their messages just sat for a day and never got sent. When I went in to look at it, I canceled, started the process again, and it asked for the SMTP password (which it seems to do a lot). Once it had the password, it was able to send. Receiving, however, was still very very slow and usually nothing comes in (although there are clearly new messages).
Somewhere out there there has to be someone that can help me set up my lamp server to send automated emails using my cable providers SMTP server
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a script that will send an alert email given certain conditions. I have the impression that sendmail is what I need to do that. I just don't know how to use sendmail at all. I assume I have to set it up like a typical mail client so that it has a mail server to log into to send from.
I've looked through the man pages, but I can't find anything in plain English there on how to set it up, or how to use it once it is set up.
I run a 6.06.2 Dapper server for a not-for-profit, and have had a very simple email set-up working for a couple of years. Users have their email address set up on the server, and use a gmail account as webmail access/storage. Emails are downloaded via POP to users gmail accounts, and are sent out from gmail via SMTP to the server. Like I said, this has worked fine for ages, but in the last couple of days its all gone wrong.
The SMTP log I get for an email I tried to send from gmail is as follows:

Mutt can only read email's from my gmail account, but no emails can be send through gmail to the Internet. I need some guide for Mutt , don't know how to configure it , for sending emails via my gmail account. I tried many muttrc conf files from the Internet and even tried to configure my own muttrc file , but still no luck.
