Title: Problem with E-Mail Alerts
Post by: gjf on July 10, 2008, 06:47:36 PM
Hi all!

Anybody can help me with Alerts? I have set the following SMTP settings:
server: smtp.mail.ru
port: 25
From: login@mail.ru
SMTP requires authorization: active
User: login@mail.ru
Password: *******

Then I go to Alerts, press "Add" and enter the e-mail for alerts: mylogin@mail.ru
Then I press "Check". Avast shows mail checker in systray and then gives me unknown error "The alert cannot be sent".

The same parameters in mail program works perfect. I have tried this using different smtp including corporate which does not require password at all - no success.

What is the problem?
