No problem, Sarah -- you never promised us a rose garden! Having explored your code for ideas, I remain VERY grateful!

As it happens, I tried sending from your stack WITHOUT authentication and, what do you know, it sent! Changing Apple Mail preferences the same way gives the same results. Now I don't know what's going to happen when I try to send a lot of emails, but we'll find out. The program I'm working with sends results of student behavior to students and families in bursts of 20 at a time, with a pause between. I'll let you know whether this works.

I'm using Sarah Reichelt's SMTP library, which has worked well for me for many years (thanks, Sarah!). I'm now asking it to send mail via one of my
on-rev email addresses (I use on-rev to host my luceatlux.com domain):
       Email address gbrack...@luceatlux.com
       Username: (correct - Apple mail uses the same one)
       SMTP server: mail.luceatlux.com with Authentication checked
       Password (correct - Apple mail uses the same one)

Using Sarah's latest stack, downloaded today, and attempting to send a
single email titled "Test" with message "This is a test of Sarah's current
library." I get an alert "Connection error: NotAuthenticated" with the
following log:

220-odin.on-rev.com ESMTP Exim 4.69 #1 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 14:28:03 -0500

Any ideas why this might happen? As I say, Apple mail has no difficulty with these parameters. Maybe there's a hint in the log? Why does it mention
bulk mail?


Sorry George, it won't work. My library uses port 25 for standard SMTP.
On-Rev uses port 465 (I think) and SSL to connect.
I never worked out the SSL connection details, but maybe I should take
a look and see if it is possible.

In the meantime, you could use an irev script to send emails using the
mail shell command.

Cheers,
Sarah
