Re: GNUMail: SMTP error

[Germán Arias]

Hi,

I'm using svn version of GNUMail and I can send emails with smtp.
I'm using SSL and in user I write the full email: myname@mail.com, for example.
And Plain mechanism for authentication, wich is the default in current SVN. And
it works for me. In fact, this email is sent with GNUMail.

Germán.
