V1.0.1 can´t send testmail and other mail

[Morpheus1966]

The mail delivery is not working. PHP mail with the following error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Swift_MailTransport::setUsername() in /homepages/25/xxxxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/framework/CAT/Helper/Mail/SwiftDriver.php on line 99

with smtp: Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Swift_TransportException' with message 'Connection could not be established with host imap.1und1.de [Connection timed out #110]' in /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php:259 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php(64): Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->_establishSocketConnection() #1 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/AbstractSmtpTransport.php(115): Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->initialize(Array) #2 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Mailer.php(80): Swift_Transport_AbstractSmtpTransport->start() #3 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/framework/CAT/Helper/Mail/SwiftDriver.php(110): Swift_Mailer->send(Object(Swift_Message)) #4 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/backend/settings/ajax_testmail.php(73): CAT_Helper_Mail_SwiftDriver->sendMail('webseite@blatt-...', 'webseite@blatt-. in /homepages/25/xxxxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php on line 259

Hm, "connection timed out" seems self-explaining to me. ;) The server cannot contact the SMTP host. Please check your settings.

[webbird]

The first error occurs when "SMTP Authentication" is enabled while PHP Mail is checked. Will fix this.

[Morpheus1966]

Oh, I forgot also with SMTP au .. the same.

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Swift_TransportException' with message 'Connection could not be established with host imap.1und1.de [Connection timed out #110]' in /homepages/25/xxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php:259 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/xxxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php(64): Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->_establishSocketConnection() #1 /homepages/25/xxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/AbstractSmtpTransport.php(115): Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->initialize(Array) #2 /homepages/25/xxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Mailer.php(80): Swift_Transport_AbstractSmtpTransport->start() #3 /homepages/25/xxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/framework/CAT/Helper/Mail/SwiftDriver.php(110): Swift_Mailer->send(Object(Swift_Message)) #4 /homepages/25/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/backend/settings/ajax_testmail.php(73): CAT_Helper_Mail_SwiftDriver->sendMail('webseite@blatt-...', 'webseite@blatt-. in /homepages/25/xxxxxxxxxx/htdocs/bc/modules/lib_swift/swift/classes/Swift/Transport/StreamBuffer.php on line 259

Grrr, where's my last comment gone???

[webbird]

grmpf Trying again...

You may try to increase the timeout value, but I don't think this will solve the issue.

In file ./framework/CAT/Helper/Mail/SwiftDriver.php, FIND

`self::$transport->setPassword(self::$settings['smtp_password']);`

AFTER, ADD

`self::$transport->setTimeout(30);`

Also check if your webserver is able to resolve the hostname imap.1und1.de.

Seems to be a problem at 1und1. See

http://www.websitebaker.org/forum/index.php/topic,24231.msg165230.html#msg165230

I've tried with WB 2.8.3 and got the same issue. So there's nothing we can do at the moment. Maybe it works with "POP3 authentication before SMTP", but we will have to add this option first.

[webbird]

Here's the solution:

Tried, works.

Works fine with SMTP-Server: mrvnet.kundenserver.de and no SMTP-Authentification

[SpeGal]

1und1 told us that no SMTP-Authentification is required with mrvnet.kundenserver.de (which is the only usuable server for that matter). They said it´s because mrvnet.kundenserver.de is a server within their system and the communication can´t be tracked by anybody anyways. But that´s a little hard to understand and believe. How could the server that hosts our website communicate securly with 1und1 without an authentification protocol (SSL/TLS)? Does anybody understand this? Is it really secure to send e-mails with the settings posted above (without authentification) and if so, why?

[webbird]

If your Webserver is one of 1und1, the communication between this server and the mail server is done within the 1und1 data centre, so it can't be tracked from outside. Of course, this only involves the authentication, not the mail that is sent!

[SpeGal]

So is there any posibility to encrypt the mail as well?

[webbird]

You will have to use something like PGP to encrypt mails. This is not part of the mailer driver. If you need this feature, you may open a new issue (feature request).
