Hi

As of today I am getting an alert for thunderbird saying. The mail server responded: SMTP Auth required for message submission on port 587.

Can anyone tell me how I fix this. My tech guys say there should be a tick box in thunderbird saying the server requires SMTP Authorisation but I can't find it anywhere.

Tools (Alt-T) - Account Settings Select 'Outgoing Server (SMTP)' in the left pane, it's at the bottom of the pane. Select your SMTP server - Edit Enter your user ID. Thunderbird will prompt you for a password the next time you attempt to send a message.

Hi Chris

We have tried changing the password but this does not solve the problem.

I am looking for a tick box that say SMTP requires authorisation.

Thanks
