I have tried several variants vut cannot get the email notifaction setup. I have entered my ISP's SMTP server (as entered in outlook) witch does not require authertication and it will not connect.

Response is always error while sending test mail

Username or Password not given for Authentication

I require this for verifaction of updates. please advise of what issue might be

That should not difficult. let's see if it is something specific for your mailserver

Well wait 2 min and I'll PM you one of my never-used old accounts. Try this!

I'll inform you if I get a mail. Hurry up! It is high bedtime here!

we go back to the Forums after PM'ing.

Is it an error msg like the one below you get?

Try to enter the same mail-adress in all three fields.

Just the mailadress that you noramlly use!

No it is like this one below

OK.

Obviously SJA does not even try to connect!

Did you try to tell the SJA that SMTP need authentication?

I can do that successfully (and actually enter garbage for UID and PW!) even with accounts that don't need authentication!

I don't know much about protocols and all that, but it seems that SJA won't do the job before it has authentication details. It must “mis-interpret” the information that the server sends or the server has an error/non standard issue in the information.

[peterlaursen]

But you have the same problem with the account of mine!

That's strange!

Try checking authentication anyway and enter jsut somthing .. the server won't use it anyway!
