Mail refuses to send emails

From: nyenyec on 4 Dec 2006 15:53 I tried Mail/Window/Connection doctor. Here's what it said: Server1 (SSL + Auth): "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Please make sure the username and password are correct." I made sure. Server2 (Plain text auth) "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Please make sure the username and password are correct. Also verify that the server supports the Password authentication mechanism. If it does not, choose an appropriate authentication setting in the Advanced tab of the Account preferences." This is confusing. I thought that Accounts/Advanced was for the _incoming_ connection, not SMTP. If it's for SMTP then how do I set the 2 different ports? E.g. on Server1 my IMAP uses SSL + Port 993 and SMTP uses SSL on port 465. I guess the above suggestion to change those settings under the "Advanced" tab is misleading. -- nyenyec nyenyec wrote: > > The console doesn't say anything.

What does the system log file say? Use the Console app, select system.log and filter on "mail". -- Tom Stiller PGP fingerprint = 5108 DDB2 9761 EDE5 E7E3 7BDA 71ED 6496 99C0 C7CF

The log file is empty, or just when you filter on mail? -- Tom Stiller PGP fingerprint = 5108 DDB2 9761 EDE5 E7E3 7BDA 71ED 6496 99C0 C7CF
From: nyenyec on 4 Dec 2006 18:06 There is stuff in both the console log and the system log. When I filter for "mail" the system log has nothing and the console log has a few entries. 2006-12-04 14:06:22.430 Mail[192] 0x162770c0: observer lock is held, postponing release. break at /SourceCache/Message/Message-752.3/Utilities.subproj/FoundationAdditions.m:649 to debug 2006-12-04 15:03:29.441 Mail[470] Exception raised during monitored invocation of _fetchUnreadCountsCheckForNewMessages:, exception: *** -[NSConcreteData initWithBytes:length:copy:freeWhenDone:bytesAreVM:]: absurd length: -1, maximum size: -2147483648 bytes 2006-12-04 15:03:29.442 Mail[470] +[NSObject(LockingAdditions) clearLocks]: object 0x4ec290 still holds lock (count=1) in thread 0x199d400 2006-12-04 15:03:29.442 Mail[470] +[NSObject(LockingAdditions) clearLocks]: object 0x16972cb0 still holds lock (count=1) in thread 0x199d400 But these don't correspond to the sending attempts. When I try to send new mails, no log entries are generated even though I get the errors in the GUI. -- nyenyec Tom Stiller wrote: > In article <1165267112.048875.194170(a)16g2000cwy.googlegroups.com>, > "nyenyec" <nyenyec(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > On Dec 4, 3:12 pm, Tom Stiller <tomstil...(a)comcast.net> wrote: > > > In article <1165265630.786262.62...(a)f1g2000cwa.googlegroups.com>, > > > > > > > > > > > > "nyenyec" <nyen...(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > > I tried Mail/Window/Connection doctor. > > > > > > > Here's what it said: > > > > > > > Server1 (SSL + Auth): > > > > "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed.
