I am trying to set up my GMX mail account as described on the mail providers homepage: Serverdaten für IMAP und SMTP - GMX Hilfe
IMAP works successful but I cannot get SMTP to work. It should work with SSL on port 465, so I selected SSL in the Mail app. On other Mail clients I also choose Plain/Password as authentication method but I could not find it here.
The Mails are not sent and I did not find a log file to see what is missing.
to get the log output you can do this in the Terminal:
You can stop the mail server with launch_roster (find the service name with “post” in it)
Then stop it like “launch_roster stop ”
After you did this you can launch the service manually like
/system/servers/mail_daemon
the path is probably wrong, i’m writing this from memory.
Anyhow, you should then have the log output in the terminal visible.
I use Mail with GMX and it will work. I’ll try to see how I have it configured and respond ASAP.
