Not sure if this the biggest development breakthrough, but with this the biggest annoyance i had with HMS seems to be history

great news. in case we're sure that this annoyance is definitely addressed, i hope 5.7 will take it's share too??

Not sure how the following relates, but I've been using Outlook 365 all month accessing my GMail Account with App Password with no problems. I seem to remember mattg making statements about using App Password to access GMail Accounts as well. App Password is a Google function itself and therefore t...

what i understand: you are 192.168.1.1 HMS is 192.168.1.10 so, we're in LAN. there is no firewall or port forwarding issue as your client perfectly can connect to HMS and starts SMTP transaction which goes fine till auth, which fails (required but not done). assuming you tried 587 and 465 ports too ...

That is one man's opinion, and only proves SA developers are not on one line. true, however KAM's words certainly should have a specific weight, i think. a better approach could be auto-hamming outbound mails (and auto-whitelisting external recipients too by the way) - like ASSP it optionally does....
