Error in sending mail list

Post by AlexG » Mon Aug 18, 2008 11:36 pm

I setup SMTP Server with Requires Authentication and using sales@example.com and Subscription 'from' address support@example.com but if sending email to subcribers with From Address: support@example.com AC show me an error - Authentication Failed and support@example.com not allowed!

You pretty much answered your own question here: 'I must use only one email address?', that is correct on the AbleCommerce side of things.
Thanks for your support

Thank you but why is in "Administration > Configure > Email > Settings" has this form "Subscription 'from' address" ?

It's possible your mail server will not allow you to send emails from one address when you authenticated it with a different address. Mine does - it's a common security feature these days in SMTP servers.
