Thunderbird 24.0 outgoing mail settings

ToonvW

New Pleskian
Hey,

Incoming mail on several devices with various operating systems gives me no trouble at all. However I can not find the right settings for outgoing mail for Thunderbird 24.0.

For incoming mail I noticed I had to submit mail.<name>.be and port 143, no authentication and non-encrypted password. And it works.

For outgoing mail server I've tried a lot of options:
mail.<name>.be, all ports tested, all authentication options, and with both encrypted or non-encrypted passwords, in every combination of these settings.
smtp.<name>.be , all ports tested, all authentication options, and with both encrypted or non-encrypted passwords, in every combination of these settings.
<name>.be, all ports tested, all authentication options, and with both encrypted or non-encrypted passwords, in every combination of these settings.

Probably I've missed one or the other, but before I go through the whole process again I might as well ask for a general direction. ;-)

Thanks
 
Hi ToonvW

Standard right out of the box, I think you should have mail.domain.be as your smtp !

You can test open dos and connect to the server using telnet !
Ex.
telnet mail.domain.be portnr

I hope the this helps you

now a days outgoing port 25 is blocked by isp. Can you paste the output for following command

telnet mail.domain 25
