Here were my suggested email settings from my host. Neither seem to work. I can configure email clients to work with the above settings.
And I started work on a manual here http://gchiu.gitbooks.io/synapse-ehr-manual/content/configuration/email.html
I cant get gmail to work now. They've changed things. Email failed with make object! [ code: 800 type: 'user id: 'message arg1: {Server error: ssl 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at} arg2: none arg3: none near: [smtp-port: open [scheme: 'ssmtp] either only ] where: none ]
More than likely they have switched encryption schemes to one no longer supported by Rebol2. I've had to work around that.
when I try to send an email via this area: I get 2 message sent dialog boxes and this error. An error occurred in seding the email notification. make object! [ code: 800 type: 'user id: 'message arg1: {Server error: tcp 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. 75sm3901964qkl.31 - gsmtp} arg2: none arg3: none near: [insert smtp-port reduce [from reduce [addr] tmp]] where: none ]
so, maybe I need to fix this by creating a bridge between Ren-C (rebol3) and Synapse? And that would allow me to do stuff that is now beyond the capabilities of Rebol2.
