Cannot connect to email server

I don't remember when I started to have this issue of not being able to send notification emails, but I can't seem to figure out what the issue is.  I have tried different mail servers to no avail.  Is there a more verbose error message that I could check?

Sorry, I found the "Show logging" link and opened the log.  Unfortunately, it only goes up to five days ago: not the most current one.  How do I get the updated logs?  I think that when I restart the program it updates the log, but I don't see anything about mail in the logs.

-EDIT-

Again, sorry for the unnecessary posting.

I have finally found the culprit:

2010-01-09 01:18:48,671::DEBUG::[email:68] Non-SSL mail server detected reconnecting to server smtp.XXXX.com:25
2010-01-09 01:19:09,592::ERROR::[email:74] Failed to connect to mail server

Is there a way to specify the port?  Apparently my mail server uses port 587.

You could have read the online Helo (Help menu in Config->Email).

Code: Select all

my.mail.server:587

Adding the port fixed the problem for me . It's weird that it was working without it in previous versions of sab.
Thanks.
