Email Notification Problem
03 Sep 2018, 20:08


Hello,

I've been trying to get my cBot to send me email notifications and I keep getting this error message:

 Failed to send email "Sell: USDCHF (Ask: 0.96974, Bid: 0.96966)Hour". System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: Syntax error, command unrecognized. The server response was:     at System.Net.Mail.SmtpConnection.ConnectAndHandshakeAsyncResult.End(IAsyncResult result)    at System.Net.Mail.SmtpTransport.EndGetConnection(IAsyncResult result)    at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.ConnectCallback(IAsyncResult result) 

 

Does anyone have any Idea what the problem could be?

Other than that error, it just gives:

Failed to send email "Sell: USDCHF (Ask: 0.96974, Bid: 0.96966)Hour". Timeout

It was actually as simple as changing the gmail SSL port from 465 to 587.
