Hi, folks upgraded to 5.2.13 today specifically to get the authenticated email feature, but doesn't appear to be working with the standard settings used by normal email system (e.g., how we log in via Thunderbird to get/send authenticated email on our server). E.g., admin > Advanced tab Email = SMTP with SSL Sender name = store name Sender's email address = store reply to/send account email (full email@email) Outgoing SMTP host = mail.ourdomain.xyz Outgoing SMTP port = 587 Use SMTP authentication = yes SMTP username = [email protected] (also tried just 'account') SMTP password = ***** So, none of the following work 1) send lost password 2) create new acct email 3) send test newsletter, of existing test newsletter file All test emails outbound to external site so not routed internally. On send of test newsletter with debug on: PHP: No Errors or Warnings Switch back to PHPmail; works first time out. Note, for our server to send authenticated SSL email, we also have these settings for Thunderbird: Outgoing Server (SMTP) settings secure - mail.ourdomain.xyz server name = mail.ourdomain.xyz Port: 587 username = [email protected] Authentication method = Normal password Connection Security = STARTTLS I believe on first visit the email client has to "accept a new SSL" cert to create authenticated connection. Obviously the store email cannot do that. I seem to recall some manual hack to set the SSL to not set a certificate or something? Could this be added as an actual feature or something? So, obviously I can use the PHPmail for the time being, however I have noticed about one customer a month not getting their receipts due to the non-authenticated email send, and it remains stuck in the outgoing mail queue. Pointers on this would be awesome. Not a newbie, and not stoopid :-) but this isn't working with the simple settings in the store admin.
