configuring gmail's SMTP server in kmail
Hi
Did any succeed in configuring gmail SMTP server with kmail? I am using
Etch/testing kmail 1.9.5
I did
Settings -> Configure Kmail -> Accounts -> Sending
and used the following settings.
Host : smtp.gmail.com
Port : 465
However I am confused about the "security" tab where it asks encryption and
authentication methods. If I clicked on "Check what the server supports",
then it detects Encryption as TLS, Authentication method as Plain. But If I
send a test email (to myself) with these settings, then I am getting the
following error
Sending failed:
Your SMTP server does not support PLAIN.
Choose a different authentication method.
The server responded: "5.7.1 Credentials Rejected 26sm7628218wrl"
The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem
(e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder.
The following transport protocol was used:
smtp.gmail.com
Any other ideas as to what I should choose in the Security tab?
thanks
raju
