Thanks for the input, I was able to actually send email from Outlook Express after changing port numbers and changing the host name to smtp.gmail.com instead of smtp.google.com.
Now I encountered a different problem - when I attempt to send an email from a servlet running on my local XP machine it looks like it is doing something but the green bar in the browser doesn't progress, it is there but stays white. And no exceptions thrown. Just sitting there not proceeding to the next page. Like it is trying to send an email but it is taking a year. On 4/16/07, Len Popp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
That's a timeout error. I was able to send an email thru smtp.google.com using Outlook Express, with no timeout error, so it looks like there's something wrong with either your email settings or your connection to gmail.com (firewall or something).
