Hi, I have a small application that periodically check my emails to see if I receive new ones. It works on C#. It works perfectly well with Yahoo and Gmail. But now I am trying to add an account from my Winhost domain and I get some authentication issue apparently. These are the settings I am using: Code: <Mailbox> <name>[user name for display]</name> <host>mail.[domainname].com</host> <username>[username]@[domainame].com</username> <password>[password]</password> <port>993</port> <isIMAP>true</isIMAP> </Mailbox> I get the following authentication exception message: Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Use the mail server's URL instead of using the mail.[domainname].com URL. To find out what URL to use. Log into the control panel. Click on the "Sites" tab at the top. Click on the site account. Click on "Email" box. Click on the "SmarterMail Manager" link. You will see the address at the top in the address bar. It will look something like this: m06.internetmailserver.net The reason for the error message is because the SSL Certificate only works with the URL: *.internetmailserver.net URL.
hum. still not working. I am using this now: Code: <Mailbox> <name>[user name for display]</name> <host>m05.internetmailserver.net</host> <username>[username]@[domainame].com</username> <password>[password]</password> <port>993</port> <isIMAP>true</isIMAP> </Mailbox> And I got the following exception: Code: The handshake failed due to an unexpected packet format Is the port ok ?
For SMTP port you need to use: 465 IMAP it's: 993 For the IMAP port of 993 doesn't work try using: 143
Still not working. I am attaching the code so hopefully you can try it and tell me what is wrong. Edit the data.xml to fill up the username and password. This is working perfectly well for gmail and yahoo
