Hola Ángel, eres un crack, ¡has dado en el clavo! (Ángel you are a crack, you has identified the problem).

I have sent myself (ono account in evolution) a trial message, writing the smtp password very quickly (I had it in clipboard, and I have pasted it inmediatly) and I could sent perfectly well the trial message with evolution and ono account.

Now I try to send this message from evolution and ono account. But I observed that the message is not sent, I am not asked for pass (it is now in seahorse the pass for sending via smtp) but message is not sent (another timeout ?). So I go back to evolution and yahoo account.

Ángel I don't understand the workaround you propossed via ssmtp to send messages, could you explain it step by step please?

Milan, Is it possible to do some change in the software to get more time to write the password in the smtp transport?, or any other easy workaround?. As I said I am very used to evolution and happy with it and I would like to continue using (now evolution 3.10) it with ono account (very comfortable for me)

Thankyou very much, both of you.

Regards
