Hi Simon, thanks for your help, As I already explained to "zrr", my problem was that I was setting my smtpmail-auth-credentials with double quotes around the port number, like this: (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp" "25" "username" nil))) Removing the double quotes around the number 25 solves the problem. On your page http://josefsson.org/smtpmail.html#Authentication you have the following example: ;; Authenticate using this username and password against my server. (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("hostname" "port" "username" "password"))) So I just took these lines and substituted my values for the strings, that is way I put the port number in double quotes.

The page now read: ;; Authenticate using this username and password against my server. (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("HOSTNAME" "PORT" "USERNAME" "PASSWORD"))) ;; Note that if PORT is an integer, you must not quote it as a ;; string. Normally PORT should be the integer 25, and the example ;; become: (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("HOSTNAME" 25 "USERNAME" "PASSWORD"))) ;; Use STARTTLS without authentication against the server. (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("HOSTNAME" "PORT" nil nil))) Thanks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
