Name | SMTPit Set Authentication |
---|
Description | Sets the type of authentication used to connect to the mail server.
|
---|
Format | SMTPit Set Authentication ( Type ; Username ; Password ; TLS Type ) |
---|
Required Parameters | Type The Type of Authentication (Specify None; Default; Plain; Login; CRAM-MD5; or Auto). Plain, Login, and CRAM-MD5 are the actual types of authentication the mail server supports. If you know which one your mail server supports, select it, otherwise use the Auto type. Auto will make the plug-in figure out which type works with your mail server. Specifying None will turn authentication off. Default uses the values set in the configuration dialog.

Optional Parameters | - Username
Specify the account username.
- Password
Specify the account password.
- TLS Type
Specify the type of SSL/TLS/STARTTLS encryption to use ( None; AfterConnect; or BeforeConnect ). The type depends on your mail server. If you do not know the type your mail server requires, try both to see which type works.
As a general rule, if you are using port 465, set this to “BeforeConnect”, or if you are using port 587, set this to “AfterConnect”. Even if you are using these ports, it is possible you do not need to use SSL at all, as this depends on your mail server.
