SMTP Authentication

Hi, so far all has installed well and all seems to be working apart from email.
I am running on a test server using the same setting I use for my joomla site which is all working ok. I am getting an error message “SMTP Error: Could not authenticate”


My server settings for joomala email to work requires SMTP Authentication to be ticked, is there a way to add this to the cart settings.

Many thanks

PS The new cart is looking awesome!

Re: SMTP Authentication

Thank you. smile

Authentication should already be set if you enter the username/password for the smtp details.

Re: SMTP Authentication

Did you do a search on Google? Do they require additional authentication? I`m not sure with Google. Sometimes you have to allow things to connect to it.

Re: SMTP Authentication

Thx for the replay, gmail does requires authentication, but since i could not get it to work I disable the smtp.

No problem. Might be worth trying another smtp service? SMTP isn`t generally required unless a host specifically requires it to send mail. If the mail is working, then should be no reason for SMTP. Although, on saying that, the one area you would need it is sending attachments via admin when you update an order. Or using the newsletter option, with attachments.
