This error is caused if elogd cannot contact your SMTP server for sending 
email. Can you please check the "SMTP host" entry in the configuration file?

Unfortunately not. The old system had a bug which deleted the last one or two 
characters, if the password length was dividable by three. Since the 
characters were deleted, there is no way to reconstruct the full password. I 
apoligize for the inconveniences, I know that this can cause lot of trouble, 
but therefore I implemented the "Forgot password?" functionality, so that 
users can log in again. Alternatively, one can edit the password file, delete 
all passwords, and ask the users to log in without password and change it 
afterwards immediately.
