Greetings all;
shentel has fired gmail, so that account stopped working, without notice
or fanfare about 14:30 local time yesterday.
I have now fixed my fetchmail & related scripts so that I can receive
incoming emails from their new server. On port 995
But setting that address in a kmail send account is not working, and
kmail won't even show me the alternate sending server as a sending
target. A "check what the server supports" times out about a minute
later as no contact hasa been made.
I'm fresh out of clues & could use some help.
Like is there an alternate port number to try instead of 25 for smtp?
Gmail smtp uses:
Port for TLS/STARTTLS: 587
Port for SSL: 465
Is there no way you could actually ask them what settings they require?
Server address and port number?
KMail isn't, so far as I know, designed to scour the web for smtp servers. ;-)
Lisi
Thanks.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
