sylvest Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Can I submit SMTP mail to TCH's servers on port 587? My reason for wanting to do this is that my ISP is blocking port 25. I know I can submit on port 26, but unfortunately I'm using Eudora as my mail client, and that doesn't seem to have the capability of submitting SMTP mail on port 26. The only option seems to be "Use submission port (587)". Thanks - Rowan Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 You would have to open a ticket with the help desk and ask. But if you can use secure SMTP you can set it to 465. Quote
TCH-Andy Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I'm fairly sure you can't, but you can try putting :26 on the end of the domain name and that usually works in Eudora. Quote
sylvest Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) Actually I've discovered that Eudora has a config variable SMPTPort that you can set in the INI file that seems to work. It doesn't seem to be possible to set this via the Options menu - you have to manually edit the INI file. I've added SMTPPort=26 and everything now seems to be working. Of course your suggestions may work too... Thanks for your support - brilliant as usual! Rowan Edited February 11, 2007 by sylvest Quote
TCH-Andy Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I'm glad it's sorted, and many thanks for coming back and letting us know a solution that worked Quote
