SMTP Authantication

Dear Experts,
Greetings.
As I know there are many forums had been posted regarding smtp authentication, but this is the different case.
I want to send an external mail from my SAP Server. Now in SCOT tcode my exchange had been configure, no doubt that external mails are send from 25 no port, because it is opened.
Now my basis fellow had told me that he is going to block 25 no port , reason is regarding SPAM generation issue.
So he had blocked port. further he is told that I should develop a report for sending mail is should contains the hard coded user id & password. which will be read at blocked port and authanticate report and allow to send mail. But he is unable to explain how it is possible!!!
now my question is how it is possible to store user name & password for smtp authentication.
Second thing where do i find such kind of examples.
third thing is it possible with RFC or any other way ?
please guide me .
Thanks & regards,
Nayan Lad

Cannot send email from my Touch (connection to smtp server fails)

Hello,
I have a new iPod Touch with 1.1.4 and the January apps. I am having a problem setting the Mail application.
I am trying to connect to the IMAP/SMTP servers at my university. I am using the exact same settings and passwords I use on my laptop, which works fine. I can receive email fine on my Touch, but every time I try to send one it fails tellings me "the connection to the outgoing server smtp.myuniversity.edu failed".
If I on purpose write a wrong password for the outgoing mail, the error message I get is different ("check the account settings for the outgoing server smtp.myuniversity.edu").
The university IT people confirmed my settings, and told me that there is nothing blocking any handheld device from using the server.
Does anyone know why this would happen?
Thanks,
Marcelo

Thank you very much for your responses
1) the link to mail setup is (sorry, it's quite long)

2) I am indeed using SSL, as instructed by IT
3) I do use port 587 instead of 25 (25 does not work either)
Any ideas? Thanks again.

Macbook Pro Cannot Connect to SMTP

I am running a 2010 MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.8. I use Mac Mail app to send and receive e-mail. Since Thursday 27th Dec 2012 I have been unable to send e-mail. I get the grey spinning wheel until the following error message appears:
The SMTP connection to server “mail.(mydomain).co.uk” failed.
My outgoing mail server is currently showing as offline. In fact I have 2 e-mail accounts and both are showing as offline. No problem receiving mail. Connection doctor connects fine to incoming mail, but not outgoing.
I have tried the following (plus other things) without any success:
Checked all the details, passwords etc
Changed ports from 25 to 465 and 587
Checked my IP address - it is not blacklisted
Removed and re-added e-mail account
Telnet port 25 - it is not blocked, but appeared to successfully connect (from what I understood from checking www)
Temporarily disabled firewall
Re-installed Mac app
Rebuilt mailbox
Repaired disk permissions
Used the repair disk utility
Deselected SSL and changed various options within "Edit SMTP server list"
Reset the keychain
Tried updating software but it says no update available.
Re-instated an old Accounts.plist (and one other file which I forget, something like com.apple.mail) from time capsule.
I then set up a hotmail account on Mail app but had exactly the same problem, ie cannot connect with SMTP server.
However, I set up my e-mail account on my wife's iPad with the same details and there was no problem at all, e-mail sent just fine as it does from my iPhone. So the issue has to be with my Macbook, right? Can anyone help before I go and spent £1250 on a new Macbook? I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Just FYI, I've had the same problem for months now. I have been accessing my hotmail via the web, but decided to try the OS X Mail app. I could get emails into the account with no problem but couldn't send. I read all the blog and support entries and have tried everything they recommended, like changing my computer name to one word, without success. Then last night, it just so happened that my broadband provider had to change out my wireless modem. As soon as he plugged in the new one, some emails that had been in my outbasket for a month went through instantly and all of a sudden my Mail, both incoming and outgoing now work. So I think people need to look at their router settings for the a solution to the problem.

HT4519 How do I use one smtp server for multiple accounts?

I have 5 email accounts on my iPhone.Though they are different providers, I've been using the same smtp server. To simplify my life, I'd like to delete 4 servers. However, each is considered a Primary server and is undeletable. How do I get around this?

How to use a ip address for pop & smtp server names when creating a new account

My xp PC is on a lan behind a Freebsd os [IE. flavor of unix] which is not running a dns server. The only way to reach it is by ip address. I have configured the account with a ip address for pop & smtp. When I create and sent a email, Thunderbird shows a window saying it trying to connect and after 10 seconds it goes away with out showing the status window. There is no email in the sent folder. Is it possible to do this ???? I can accomplish this using ms/outlook so I know it is possible.

I haven't tried this in years, but could you give this server a name and enter that into TB
Then in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts you add that name and ip

In a Mailer object, how do I include a username and password for authentication or credentials on my smtp server?

In visual basic, I'm able to send an email with this code:
        Dim Email As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage()
        Email.From = New System.Net.Mail.MailAddress("[email protected]m")
        Email.To.Add("[email protected]")
        Email.Subject = "This is a test"
        Email.Body = "Body of email goes here"
        Email.IsBodyHtml = True
        Dim x As New System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("smtpauth.earthlink.net")
        Dim net As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("[email protected]et", "supersecretpassword")
        x.Credentials = net
        x.Port = 587
        x.Send(Email)
Is there some way to use this code in Lookout or is there some Mailer datamember I don't know about that I can setup to provide the right credentials? I'm at a loss for what to do and how to do it. If I can't figure it out, I'll have to use the Run object in Lookout to call a program that I'll have to make in VB that'll send out an email. In that case, I've got to install .Net on 60 computers in the field and then I'll have to make a series of exe files for each alarm condition and associate individual Run objects with each. Sheesh. Well, anything you all can do to help would really be appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to answer me.
Steve

Lookout mailer object doesn't support authentication. We are considering adding this feature, but not yet.
Another option for you is to use other Mail Server. There are some free Mail Server softwares which don't do authentication.

SMTP in Business Services

Hi,
I am using SMTP server in OSB for sending emails. Can anyone help me to configure mutiple email id in business service. whats the delimiter for separate the mail id in BS.
Please help on this.
Thanks
Rajesh

Two ways in OSB:
1. In the SMTP server add multiple email ids separated by a comma. For example: [email protected],[email protected]
2. When you invoke the Email business service, click on "set Transport Headers" for outbound request. In protocol option 'Email", select 'To' and replace value with comma separated email id values.You can play around with other valuse such as 'cc'/'bcc'/'subject' etc.
Thanks and Regards

Send email from OWB with authenticated SMTP server (AUTH_LOGIN)

Hi all,
I want to send email from Oracle Warehouse Builder 11.2.0.2 using a SMTP server with basic authentication (AUTH_LOGIN).
I've created an ACL for OWBSYS user according to note ID 1229769.1 in support.oracle.com.
But, I need to configure again the ACL to connect to the SMTP server using user and password.
I read the article in metalink, *How to Send an Email Using SMTP over an SSL Connection [ID 1323140.1]*+
but I don't know how can I configure again the ACL for use in OWB.
How OWB is able to authenticate with the SMTP server?
Thanks!
Maximiliano.

I can not send email from my iPhone or iPad its goes out from the iMac ok. I get SMTP is incorrect. any suggestions?

Having problems sending email from my iphone and ipad. Im getting a SMTP is incorrect error. Has anyone had this problem?
Spent 3 hours with internet carrier still not resolved. Everything is fine on the imac.

What is the error message provided if any?
If the email account is provided by your ISP, does your ISP have an authenticated SMTP server?
Are you unable to send email with the account using your iPhone or iPad when connected to the same wi-fi network or internet connection as your Mac with your ISP?

I cannot send email - error message as follows : 'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk.' I can send email from other apple devices, and the email settings are identical. Any ideas?

For some reason I cannot send email - all was working fine, but now I get the following error message when I try to send email:
'The sender address (my email address) was rejected by the server smtp.tiscali.co.uk'
I can receive incoming mail ok and I can send email from other Apple devices. The problem seems confined to my Mac Book Pro.
Ant ideas?

I am able to rec email from my Iphone but cannot send, have checked smtp address, turned on , now what?

I am able to receive email from Iphone (am on Time werner cable, Roadrunner) but cannot reply or sent email, have checked ip address and turned on system on iphone, anyone have further suggestions?

Time Warner does not have an authenticated SMTP server for RoadRunner accounts, so unless you are connected to Time Warner for internet access via an available wi-fi network, you will have problems sending email with the account or you won't be able to send at all.
Most, if not all internet service providers block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network or not provided by the ISP being used for your internet connection at the time unless the SMTP server is authenticated. This restriction is part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from an ISP's domain which probably doesn't help much in preventing spam since the majority of spam emanates from PCs running that swiss cheese for security OS that is Windows that have being taken over remotely.

Cannot send emails in Mac Mail using third party SMTP via BT Infinity Broadband

EUREKA!!
I have a Mac Book Pro and recently had my home broadband upgraded to BT Infinity. Prior to this upgrade sending emails via my Mac mail was working perfectly. Since the new installation I could no send any external emails using the Hotmail.co.uk or 123-Reg.co.uk smtp outgoing servers. Googlemail.com was ok.? very strange.
So when I connected the same macbook to other wireless connections it would work perfectly.???
So after many hours wasted messing around, I managed to get the right person at the right time via BT helpline in the UK not India. (India helpine just say "we are not trained in Apple".
So the very polite man from UK Helpline provided me with the solution.
GO TO > Apple Icon top left > System Preferences > Network > Wireless >
Select your wireless connection > Click Advanced lower right on popup
Select DNS tab
Click on the + under DNS left pane and type the following :- 208.67.222.222
Click Apply
BINGO!!!!
I hope this helps someone, as I know how painful these types of issues can be.
Cheers

Hi Haggie
Had a similar experience but couldn't work out why macbook was working and imac not. I hate verification with bt. Anyway, tried your method and as you say eureka! Did have imac plugged in before and put it on wifi to try your fix I will try plugging broadband back in to see if that works and will post back but at the moment just enjoying the moment!
Just to say a big thank you for not only sorting the problem out but equally importantly posting the answer! Too many people sort out their problems without letting other people know how!
Many thanks

I cannot send mail from 1 of my iCloud accounts using mac mail- smtp problem

Slightly strange problem today with smtp server. For some reason timing out on po4 on one of my accounts. Another account uses po2 and is working fine. If I log in to icloud I can send messages so problem appears to be in configuration of mac mail. I have not changed anything, I can receive mail. When trying to change smtp I cannot edit the smtp box or if i do it reverts to what it was previously. Any suggestions ?

Whoops have jus seen this thread which looks like it is a more widespread problem than just me

After upgrade to 10.10, can't send email (SMTP cert. error). On previous version running on another machine, can still send find. This new version is missing the "Usual Ports" checkbox option. Can someone please help?

I just upgraded to 10.10. On the mail program, one of my accounts is having an issue sending email. I am getting the following error message:
The certificate for this server is invalid.
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
But on another machine running Mavericks, I can still continue to send email. The same is try from my iPhone 5S.
On that machine running Mavericks the SMTP is configured as SSL and for "Usual Ports" (25, 465, 587) but THIS OPTION IS MISSING ON THE NEW VERSION. On the new version I have tried configuring the port to 25 and then 465 and 587 with no success. I have used the Network Utility to see if my provider is blocking me -- it is not. I have no third-party software on this machine (anti virus). I can receive email fine. On the new Yosemitie Mail there are new checkbox options of Automatically check my settings and Allow unsecure connections. I tried to uncheck SSL for SMTP but then it says it cannot send securely my passowrd and i need to check the option "Allow to send unsecurely". I did that but the same error message keeps appearing. So I have tried nearly everything I have been able to, all to no avail. Please can somebody help?

Thanks for your reply. Yes, it is a POP account. Incoming mail is fine. My port for incoming is also 110. But the outgoing port should be 587 (or 24, 465 and 587 as on Mavericks' "Usual Ports" option). I am using the same configuration across three different devices and only the machine running Yosemite is having issues. I notice in the new version of Mail there is no longer the "Usual Ports" option. I am not sure this is the culprit or not. But the fact is no matter how I configure it, it will not send mail for these particular servers. I have multiple clients and only one is affected, meaning I can send email from other email addresses (different hosting contracts) on Yosemite but on this one particular one I cannot.

HELP! HELP! Please.... Cannot send email via SMTP....

Hi,
Not posted here before but this really is a last ditch attempt to get my email working. I'm at my wits end with this.
I reported a problem that I could not send mail via SMTP (with Outlook) last December (2014). I kept getting a message from the mail server stating "421 Too many messages". They guys on live chat tried for an hour to get it working, finally gave up and told me to use WebMail instead. Ok, that worked but... in January that went off completely and I found that BT had removed my mailbox from the system!
It's now 19th March 2015. Today, (yes 3 months later) my mailbox finally came back online. At last I could catch up on all my lost messages, lost business and everything else that was important (yep all my old messages were THERE!).
BT support have been useless, in fact, more than useless. I'm abroad working at the moment and I've had to make many international calls to the UK to bitterly complain about this. They won't call me - they will only call a UK number so all the cost, plus the lost business and everything else is at my cost. So, webmail is working. I went to set up my Ouitlook client and guess what...? I have the SAME error message. The client is connecting but error is the same.
421 is a SERVER message which is telling me that the BT Mail server is not configured for enough connections. Either that or it's severely overloaded. This is BT's problem - not mine but all BT have done is fob me off with excuses for 3 months and now I'm back to square one. the support guys have no idea what this message means.
Today I was told that if I wanted it sorted I had to pay for BT Expert help.
What??? I don't need an "expert". I just want them to configure their server properly!
Can ANYONE - anyone from BT please, please help me to get this sorted. I'm tearing my hair out and as you may have guessed by now I'm also very angry about this.
I've tried making an online official complaint but that came to nothing as they told me as it was Outlook they couldn't help. Maybe it was set up wrong. It's not set up wrong - I'm a Network Engineer!! I've set up hundreds of Outlook accounts! The SERVER error message is like a big flashing sign stating that it's a BT issue. Why will no-one listen to me??? Why will they do nothing at all? This problem has been posted many times. Why is it not sorted?
Anyone???
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes of course I've contacted the Premium Mail help number. I've called them many, many times without any success at all and since I've been calling from abroad it's cost me a fortune to get nowhere.
These forums are for the BT Community. I'm part of the community since I still have BT services. This isn't a Broadband forum. As I've indicated though, I've been with BT for over 35 years so I think that entitles me to some sort of service - even from here if possible.
There is no issue with my account according to the BT staff. This has been checked and all is fine. The issue is that they are refusing to acknowledge that there is a problem although there clearly is one.
However.... your statement:
It also possible that you are being stopped from using BTs SMTP server, because you are not actually connected to BT Broadband. You would therfore be restriced to using webmail only.
... is new to me. No-one has told me that.
One has to then beg the question: "If you can only use so-called Premium Mail via the web then why are BT not telling people that?" No-one seems to know - even you Keith, say that "it is also possible...."
If this actually IS the reason then I could have been told that from the beginning.
Unfortunately, error 421 is one of the more "unspecific" codes generated by mail servers. This error can mean many things. It can show misconfiguration but it doesn't show up as a security lockdown - even though it could be. What I can't understand is why no-one actually knows. No-one can explain absolutely and that's what is really annoying here.
No-one will take responsibility and no-one is willing to even try to help me out here - that's what is really bad.
Keith, you've come up with something which makes sense that may well explain the issue - but the question is really: "What can I do about it?".
Nothing? I just have to put up with it? Great customer care....
