Mail Settings

[Chris Herrnberger]

Greets:

Ive stumbled across a problem with OGo wrt to mail and was wondering if there
is a work a round.

I have always been able to tie OGo's mail functionality to my ISP which runs a
Cyrus IMAP server, so there was no need to run a local mail server when using
OGo for personal use. This scenario has changed and I now need to
authenticate with the mail server. While this is not an issue for popping
mail, it is an issue with sending mail as I need to connect and authenticate
on a non standard port 587.

So I was wondering at the code level is there a possibility to change to a non
standard port and if so, where do I start looking in the code base.

Regards

OGo doesn't really "send" mail,  it passes it off to the local MTA for
delivery.  You should be able to configure the MTA to authenticate to
your upstream MTA via your distro's config tool (YaST?)

Thanks. I completely forgot about that. See what a little absence does.
