Hi Julie Most emails sent if you’re on the same server shouldn’t need authentication (ie if you’re sending iinet emails on the iinet server). However, if you’re sending emails on a different network connection (or travel on different wireless connections that use different internet/ISPs) then authentication is needed (eg using iinet email but say on a Telstra or Optus network). This setting can be found in -
Mail = Preferences - Accounts - click on email account on left hand side. On right hand side, go to Server Settings. Look under Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP). You’ll see “Host Name”, which is a drown menu (if you have set ti automatically manage connection settings this can be slightly different). Go to Edit SMTP Server List (or you’ll want the follow details near where it says “host name”.) Under Server Settings, you may have Authentication set to “Password”. Above this, you want the full iinet email address and the email password). Or if you using iinet email on the iinet internet, you can change Authentication to “None”. Then click OK. That should get it working for you.
