Windows server 2008  Mysql  2.2.9.2

Cannot send mail via localhost, gmail etc. The log file is as follows....

DotNetOpenMail.MailException: Could not connect to ::1:25 ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used ::1:25

I tried enabled dotnetopenmail and it sent one email and that was it. Not to be repeated.

I am also running multiple sites with enablesitesettingsmtpsettings set to "true"

Man I'm baffled

This error is related to IPv6  being preferred over IPv4 -- "::1" is your localhost address in IPv6 terms. Disabling IPv6 through the registry and restarting the computer solved this for me, although I'm not sure this is a good solution.

What are the consequences of disabling the DotNetOpenMail?

Hi Joe,

I have the following environment and experiencing problem with email config.

=> mojoPortal Version  2.3.5.3 MSSQL, running on IIS7, .Net 4.0 (upgraded) at godaddy

i put the email settings as follows:

-tried with false as well
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

I set the admin account, in the site configuration with myacct@gmail.com.

regardless of the DisableDotNetOpenMail setting, i observe only the system.net mail component running, and not dotnetopenmail, is this depreciated in the .net4 version of mojoportal?

I tried different smtp servers, our exchange server, host provider's smtp, yahoo and gmail. in all cases, i am getting the following error:

2010-10-05 04:15:45,184 ERROR mojoPortal.Net.Email - error sending email to validtestemail]@yahoo.com from myacct@gmail.com, will retry
