[Geary] SMTPS connection problems

[Andre Jonas <nipsky googlemail com>]

Hi,

I'm having troubles adding my university's mail account to Geary (recent git version) since I can't connect to the SMTPS server using the following login information:

Server: smtps.mail.uni-kiel.de

Port: 25

STARTTLS

The GUI just gives me: "Unable to validate: SMTP username or password incorrect."

Debug mode gives me:

[deb] 14:30:29 0.670170 smtp-client-session.vala:102: [smtps.mail.uni-kiel.de/default:25] Attempting PLAIN authenticator

[deb] 14:30:29 0.127157 smtp-client-session.vala:102: [smtps.mail.uni-kiel.de/default:25] Attempting LOGIN authenticator

[deb] 14:30:29 0.130487 geary-engine.vala:307: Error validating SMTP account info: Unable to authenticate with smtps.mail.uni-kiel.de/default:25

Thunderbird and K9 Mail (Android) have no problem connecting (and sending mails) using the same login information, including username and password. The IMAP connections works without a problem in Geary, by the way.

Personally, it would be enough for me having a way to ignore the smtp check when adding the account, since I only use it for fetching mails anyway.

Cheers

Andre
