I thought also about that, but people who are use to bulletin boards or instant messaging have the common knowledge that a ;) gives a smiley, not a \;). While it would work with the smiley button, which could insert anything, the "other" half of the people who are used to the standard smileys would complain. So I hope that ?-) is acceptable by both sides. |

Your verbose output seems to be only partial. I have modified the verbose output recently, so please update to a more recent version of elog. With 2.6.2-3 I get for example

This is of course without SMTP username. Our mail server does not support SMTP username, so I programmed this kind of "blindly".

All server I met so far were running on port 25, so I hardcoded this in elogd.c. You can change it in the source code at line 2119:
bind_addr.sin_port = htons((short) 25);
If more people ask for this, I can make it a parameter. |

I downloaded the latest version just yesterday. I checked again now; it is version 2.6.2-3. I'll wait some time for release of new build of windows binaries. Mine differs from yours as a one build number only.
Thanks for prompt answer. |

Yepp it helped. I could reproduce your problem and fix it. Can you try elog262-4.exe (Revision 1729)? |

Now I installed 262-4 but no change. communication seems to be stopped at the same point.

There is a free e-mail service at mail.softhome.net. It provides smtp and pop3 services. You can use this for testing if you want.
Saluts.

Hi Stefan!
Just installed elog-2.6.2-1729 and it's working perfectly. I haven't had enough time to test it thoroughly yet but will report any problems I might find. As always thanks for your excellent work, I appreciate it.
Regards, Greg |

I tried but I was unable to obtain a free account. Furthermore, the problem is probably related to your SMTP server's authentication method. There are many methods and ELOG only supports a subset. So I would have to try with your specific SMTP server. So the only recommendation I can give you is to find an SMTP server without authentication. That one will certainly work with elog. |
