Hey, same error as the above comment here, Unable to connect via TLS.(Tried using it with SendGrid) Contacted hosting company, they say the ports used are open, contacted SendGrid, they have no idea what could be wrong. Any pointers where could i look for a solution?

Thanks

Hi, just installed your extension on Magento 1.6.1 CE. It is running on my dev PC on XAMPP. Can’t seem to connect to TLS, tried to use the google apps option and the smtp option with the same result:
Unable to send test email. Exception message was: Unable to connect via TLS…

Any ideas? I am guessing this is an issue with my XAMPP setup?

Thanks

I have a quick tip – I set this up in less than a minute on one site, beautiful, no issues (Great extension btw, many thanks!) – then I tried on another site – same server, config everything. Gmail kept denying my password. I checked it like 12 times – no dice. I could log in fine to gmail but the extension was not permitted to send mail.

Here’s the error:
ASchroder.com SMTP Pro Self-test results
Testing outbound connectivity to Server:
Using Google Apps/Gmail configuration options
Connection to Host SMTP server successful.
Sending test email to your contact form address customerservice@knattydread.com:
Unable to send test email. Exception message was: 5.7.1 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at 5.7.1 http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=14257 jm11sm20930992ibb.1 …
Please check and double check your username and password.
Contact Form test email did not use SMTPPro to send.

It links to a google help article that directed me to the captcha unlock page:

I was sure it wouldn’t work – but it did. It was so random I had to post so that it might help someone else stuck with the same issue.

FOX FOR BUG in 1.4.3

When in DEVELOPMENT MODE, emails sent from templates should be sent to form contact email but they are not.

Might be a extension clash by the sounds of it, install the extension clash checker extension and see what it says.

Hi Ashley,

thanks for your effort to improve Magento and our developers work. I would like to know why in a Magento 1.4.2.0 the test works but when I try to submit a order any email starts from the Magento. The configuration seems ok, so I don’t know why it doesn’t work.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Regards

Hi, Ryan – need to know what Apache is logging for that 500 error. Or also check the Magento logs, but probably Apache will hold the answer.

I am now getting a 500 Internal Server Error and it redirects and gets stuck showing page http://www.website.com/smtppro/index/index/

It was working fine, but I then moved my website to a new server and realized I was not getting any of the emails CC’d to me. When running the Self Test I am getting the above error/result. Any tips?

Ashley,
I was able to fix this by copying the “app/code/core/aschroder/ ~ /smtppro/” folder into my theme (app/design/adminhtml/dev/default/template/smtppro/view.phtml) where it was looking for it.

Thanks again for the great plugin.
