SMTP Problem - pop before smtp

[brunette_va]

Hi! I have spent the last three days trying to figure this out.

I get the "SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host." error. My IMAP works for incoming mail.  Could this be due to my host using pop-before-SMTP?  Please help.

I have same problem and resolved this:

1. At 'emailadmin' create a profile with
    profile is active  (check)
    users can define their own identities: (check)
   Users can define their own email accounts: (check)
whithout details in 'SMTP' and 'IMAP'

2. On felamimail (mail) 'manage email accounts and identities' create a identity with 'use custum settings' (check) and fill data 'incoming mail server(IMAP)' and 'outgoing mail server(SMTP)' but uncheck 'authentication required' (it is important)

....

I hope this help you

So is it a bug?  Worked for me too, I just don't understand why it doesn't work from emailadmin?

I did this it worked for 2 months then I'm back to the same errors.  Any suggestions out there?  I tried setting up my gmail too and same issue as with company email.

I dont think that POP before SMTP is supported be EGroupware.

GMail does NOT use that and is fully working with EGroupware. GMail uses
SMTP vise SSL, so you have to use "ssl://hostname" instead of "hostname"
in EMailAdmin.
