Trying to get my SMTP working via my yahoo pop account. What I've noticed is that the SMTP time out setting does not appear to stay saved. I can change it from the default of 1,000MS to many other values and I can click Save. However when I exit and come back to the config window the timeout setting has returned to 1,000MS.

 

I have been able to sucessfully use the test gmail settings provided on the forum here. However whenever I try to use my yahoo account and click "test" the ISY just sits there w/o error appearing but the cursor stays stuck on an hour glass. If I close the browser window I can relogin fine.

 

The test GMAIL works

server: smtp.gmail.com

port: 587

user id: isyalerts@gmail.com

password: holamola

from: (leave blank)

TLS: checked

 

Yahoo both plus and nonplus give results above (hang):

 

plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Use SSL, port: 465,

user id: myyahooID

password: yahoomailpass

from: (leave blank)

TLS: tried checked and unchecked both

 

 

smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Use SSL, port: 587,

user id: myyahooID

password: yahoomailpass

from: (leave blank)

TLS: tried checked and unchecked both

 

checking in my LOG I see several entries of

-50001

-5012

-5012

-5012

Hello junkycosmos,

 

This feature is only available on 2.7.3 and above. Would you be kind enough to make sure you have 2.7.3 installed (Help | About).

 

With kind regards,

Michel

It took a bit of experimenting but this finally worked for me setup like this...

 

SMTP Server:  plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
SMTP Port:    587
User ID:      yahooID
Password:     yahooMailPassword
From:         yahooID@yahoo.com
Timeout:      1000
TLS:          unchecked

 

The port 465 may be blocked by the internet provider so that may be why its not working and 587 is. Here is Yahoo's help page.
