Sylpheed Mail Sending Problem in Lubuntu 11.10

Asked By 10 points N/A Posted on -

Hello techyv, can you help me on this?


I want to incorporate my Hotmail account in Sylpheed: For example [email protected]. Advice from Hotmail was to use the following servers:

POP3-Server: pop3.live.com (Port 995)

SMTP Server: smtp.live.com (Port 25)

Also for SSL :

SSL for POP3 and SMTP

SMTP- Authentication

I used these settings but:

I'm able to receive emails but cannot send them, nothing happens for about 60 seconds then I get a message saying the session has timed out, and the message cannot be sent. I'm running Sylpheed 3.2.0beta3, Lubuntu 11.10

I have quite an old laptop, but I think it is up to the job: IBM A22m, only 256 MB RAM,850 MHz, 10GB HD. I chose to use Lubuntu because of my older laptop. It has worked great up until now, aside from Sylpheed! I am used to Windows so don't have a lot of experience with Linux.

Hello dear,

Here I am writing some causes of your problem. Read this carefuly and match for the solution. I think you can solve your problem by your own after reading this causes.

1. Your sending e mail address may be not written properly

2. Check whether your address is correct or not

3. If you sent to inappropriate mail address, then there is a possibility of bouncing back email

4. There may be problems in file attachments. Sometimes, some attachments are not supported by Hotmail

5. You have crossed the limit of your surpassed Hotmail account

6. Tour account may be blocked. Then please contact to the service provider
