My e-mail notifications used to work with Godaddy. However, now they don't. I tried to setup the gmail SMTP and those don't work either.
With Godaddy, I had relay-hosting.secureserver.net, anonymous, evertything else blank. That used to work. Godaddy maintains that it's not their problem despite the fact that I changed NOTHING and it just all of a sudden stopped working. The error I get when testing their server is:
There has been an error trying to send the test email. The error is:
Mailbox name not allowed. The server response was: sorry, your mail was administratively denied. (#5.7.1)
I decided to try gmail's SMTP as follows:
smtp.gmail.com:587
my authentication to basic
enabled SSL
and put in my username and password
I also tried port 465, which supposedly supports SSL.
I also tried to use NTLM with and without SSL.. no luck
Error message is either timeout or:
Error: Host Settings is currently unavailable.
