Re: [opensuse] problem sending mail in Kmail

While testing kde4.1 yesterday, I found that sending mail from Kmail suddenly stopped working. In the version of Kmail, the message "Transport 'KNode Mail Transport' is invalid." appears in a box titled "Sending failed - KMail" The same thing happens running in either kde 4.1 or 3.5. In the 3.5 version of Kmail, no message appears, but the messages don't get sent. In both versions, the settings are the same as they have been and previously I could send fine. I use smtp to send through a comscast account.

I'm pretty much out of ideas and would appreciate any new ones!

Thanks,

Oddly enough, it started working again this morning a couple of hours after the initial post. I don't know of anything I changed to make it work. I had tried multiple combinations of authentication and encryption with no success previously. So my best guess is there was a temporary problem with Comcast's server. I haven't had much problems with them in the past. Thanks for the reply! Bernie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
