Hi The Bat! beta list members, I am a pobox.com user (www.pobox.com); they offer a nice redirection service and also have a SMTP relayer as an option. They have recently changed their SMTP server to an authenticated one, and although the old one is still working it will not be running sometime soon. The new server is sasl.smtp.pobox.com, you can connect to the SMTP standard port, 25, and also port 26 either with regular or secure connection (STARTTSL), and in full secure mode to port 465 (TSL). All of these options work correctly with The Bat!. However, the authentication is never carried out. I have set it to use a specific user and password, yet The Bat! always warns me that there were no authentication mechanisms detected. I have contacted customer support and and have been told that indeed their logs show that the connection is established correctly but the server rejects my messages because there was no authentication. Other than checking my settings, which I would swear are right, might there be a problem with newer versions of The Bat!? I've tried 1.53d and the last two betas 31 & 33 with no luck. Version 1.46 is reported to authenticate correctly, although I have shot it a try.
Could anyone try to connect to that server and report the results? I know you don't have a user login on it; nonetheless, whatever you use as user and password, you'll see if the authentication does or does not take place. -- Best regards, Javier Marcet mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Some people hope to achieve immortality through their works or their children.
