Hi Paul,

The ABA sends out e-mail whenever an error occurs. This is done by code in the Global.asax.

That code uses the mail server defined at the bottom of web.config. Are you sure you changed smtp.yourprovider.com to the smtp server of your provider in the config file?

The error message you posted is related to problems with SMTP, so if I were you, I'd check that first...

Cheers,

Imar

Imar, changing the web config seems to have sorted it out.

Can't thank you enough for all the advice, you've been tremendously helpful and undoubtedly saved me a lot of time

Next job is website content management.....!

Thanks mate

Paul

You're welcome. Have fun.

Hi I am having problems with smtp.

I have modified my web.config's smtp setting to have the following:

 <mailSettings>
      <smtp from="Ady">
        <network host="smtp.google.com" password="******" userName="[email protected]" />
      </smtp>

But when I sign up I get the following error:

 Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: 5.7.1 <[email protected]>... Relaying denied
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi there,

I am not 100% sure, but I don't think that the Google mail server allows you to send mail through their mail servers like this.

You could try to use your ISP's mail server instead.

Hi Imar:

Thank you for your quick reply. I've tried using my isp's and I get this:

Same story, relaying is not allowed.

Did you provide a user name and a password for your own ISP?

If your host wants you to authenticate first, set defaultCredentials to true on the network element:

<mailSettings>
  <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="You@YourProvider">
    <network host="[email protected]" port="25"
       password="Password" userName="UserName" defaultCredentials="true" />
  </smtp>
</mailSettings>

Hi Imar,

yes I am entering a password and Username...

And did you try the defaultCredentials?

If that doesn't work, you'll need to contact your ISP and see if they even support this.

I sure did! My isp said that it should work, and all my other dozen email accounts don't seem to work either.

As a solution, is there any way I can remove double opt in, I don't really need it
