Hi,
Sorry, due to error encountered below
535 Authentication failed. Restarting authentication process
with hMailserver, what needs to be adjusted to the server/user account? I am using correctly the user account with the password.

Use your email address as the username
Username in the form of '
peter@example.com' and NOT just 'peter'

Hi,
Yes, I used full account details like
oServer.User = "sender@???.com";
oServer.Password = "???";
oServer.ConnectType = SmtpConnectType.ConnectSSLAuto;
I used EASendMail package for this (in .Net application) but support of EASendMail said that current issue is "account authentication problem" and they could not help further.

Try connecting with SSL first and see if that works
I've found that .NET SSL settings can often not be what you expect
I don't use EASendMail package though but I have used .NET's built in mail classes

Hi,
Thanks. Can you share it regarding .NET's built in mail classes?
