Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Running Outlook 2016 on Windows 10.
I have existing exemail accounts that are working fine. I have recently added a new email address on my Exetel account. I apply exactly the same pop3, smtp and port setting that are being used in the other 2 accounts but keep getting an smtp encryption error. No encryption option has been selected.
I have also tried turning off the Malware and Firewalls.
Tried on a windows 7 PC running Outlook 2016, no luck, same error.
Tried on a Samsung Tablet (Andriod)(WiFi). Using the exact same settings as above, my new email account works fine!

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Can you check using the same Samsung tablet with Exetel internet Wifi? Could you also confirm here the settings that you have applied with the new exemail account? pop3, smtp and port numbers?Redbill wrote:Running Outlook 2016 on Windows 10.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
I am having the same issues when trying to set up my email using POP3.vic.exemail.com.au and SMTP.vic.exemail.com.au. The error message is saying that it cannot connect to the SMTP server using the specified encryption method which is 'none'
Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Could you please check whether you can login to https://webmail.exetel.com.au/src/login.php and send / receive emails? Could you also confirm here the settings that you have applied with the new exemail account? pop3, smtp, SSL and port numbers?FM1982 wrote:I am having the same issues when trying to set up my email using POP3.vic.exemail.com.au and SMTP.vic.exemail.com.au.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
I can send and receive email from webmail and my settings are as follows;
- Incoming Mail
- Incoming Mail
- Server: Pop3.vic.exemail.com.au
Port: 110
This server requires an encrypted connection (SSL/TLS): Not checked
Requires logon using secure password authentication (SPA): Not checked
- Server: smtp.vic.exemail.com.au
Port: 25
Encryption method: none
Requires logon using secure password authentication (SPA): Not checked
Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Please note that if you can send and receive emails via webmail - that means there is no issue from Exetel end. Anyways can you PM us the service number / customer ID along with the email address that you are experiencing issues where Exetel can investigate urgently.
Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Just a thought - are you using an Exetel service? The SMTP server checks your IP address.
Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Unfortunately the Samsung tablet I have does not have a SIM. I use from home WiFi connected to Exetel ADSL.
Settings are:
- Incoming Mail
Server: pop3.qld.exemail.com.au
Port: 110
This server requires an encrypted connection (SSL/TLS): Not checked
Requires logon using secure password authentication (SPA): Not checked
- Outgoing Mail
Server: smtp.qld.exemail.com.au
Port: 25
Encryption method: none
Requires logon using secure password authentication (SPA): Not checked
Webmail is working.
I have also configured the same email address on another laptop connected to the internet via Telstra and used the Telstra smtp as the outgoing server, this works fine.
For my situation the issue seems only to be on PCs using Outlook 2016 connected to the Exetel network.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Just for testing, do you have installed a different email client on the same PC where you can configure the same email settings and check?Redbill wrote:Unfortunately the Samsung tablet I have does not have a SIM. I use from home WiFi connected to Exetel ADSL.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Based on the planned maintenance notified via https://forum.exetel.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=296&t=43713 , For those who have the issues with encryption and using iPhone please follow the below steps.
Settings => Accounts & Passwords => Select your exemail account => Advanced => Authentication
Then select "MD5 Challenge-Response" and it will work.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
I am experiencing this issue in Outlook 2016 on a Windows 10 PC not an Iphone. MD5 setting, to my knowledge, is not available in the Outlook settings!
I have loaded this account onto the supplied Windows 10 email client and it work ok (sends and receives).

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
Another suggestion - go to the Outgoing Server tab, and check you have not ticked "requires authentication", or the log in button.
SMTP email is extremely simple; you can do it from a DOS Prompt/terminal, and I often do if I don't want to save the message. I am guessing there's one of those annoying little slips somewhere in the Outlook settings that the gremlins have made invisible.

Re: Outlook 2106 smtp issues
This happened to me. It seems to be a bug in Outlook 2016.
My solution:
Close Outlook
Open Control Panel > Mail > Email Accounts > New > Manual setup
Enter account details
Connection successful!

Thank you for the feedback and sharing this. after adding a new account, did you remove the old account from the client settings?ollie1a wrote:This happened to me. It seems to be a bug in Outlook 2016.
