Using Verizon SMTP Server with GMail

asr20939

GMail now offers sending from an external SMTP server. I have Verizon FIOS and would like to send email using outgoing.verizon.net (so that the email appears from another non-gmail account without the "on behalf of..." header information). However, when trying to configure the GMail settings, I get the following message:

Authentication failed. Please check your username/password.
[Server response: Remote server does not support TLS code(500) ]

I am using the correct username/password. Is it possible to use outgoing.verizon.net with GMail?

verizon.net/port25

I think you have to use port 587 instead of the default.

give it a shot

Where are you trying to configure this? Is it a web-based page or in a client? If it's a client, which one?

For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "fakeacct@verizon.net" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.

The settings for using Verizon's outgoing server would be:

Server: outgoing.verizon.net

Server Requires Authentication: Yes

Username: fakeacct

Password: fakepassword

Port: 25 (although 587 also works.)

These settings should work unless you have a Verizon/Yahoo account, in which case the server name is: outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net

Hope this helps!
