Are you sure about your POP and SMTP settings for GMX? (I use a gmx.co.uk address and the following settings are working, but I can also see there appears to be different settings for *.net GMX addresses).

Also, these are the settings my Winmail client on my Windows 7 PC uses for GMX.co.uk, but I use the settings on my Jolla to get the mail, without problem.

I have POP3 Server: pop.gmx.com (port 110)(NO SSL) SMTP Server: mail.gmx.com (port 25)(NO SSL)

Outgoing Mail Requires Authentication (use same settings as Incoming Mail)

If you have successfully used your settings before, then ignore this post.

gmx.net, gmx.com use different settings. I might have done something wrong with my settings, but the same settings work with thunderbird, i.e. incoming SSL 995 password, outgoing smtp SSL465 password. Sailfish Mail account settings assumes that account incoming and outgoing service settings are the same, but the authentication mechanism is not for this case?

ah, okay, I found differing information on gmx, I see what you're saying.

Yes, agreed, my incoming and outgoing passwords are different and adding a second account threw up that problem. I think I must have tried around 8 times before it accepted the password. There doesn't seem to be any specific order in which to make it 'stick'!

Errors are clear: RECV: "535 Authentication credentials invalid"

Your login details are not accepted by the server in both situations.

Thanks, I managed to fix incoming mails, user login name was wrong ;-( I still get error with outgoing mail tho.

gmx.net correct settings Here is my pop3 settings for my gmx.net email account that work for me:

Incoming mail server: 
username: xxxx@gmx.net
Server address:  pop.gmx.net
Secure connection: SSL
Port: 995

Outgoing mail server: 
username: xxxx.gmx.net (same as incoming, user name here used to be an ID)
Server address: mail.gmx.net
Secure connection: TLS
Port: 587

Authentication: password

Thanks for your help

SMTP also complains about wrong authentication: SMTP : RECV: "535 Authentication credentials invalid" and in above logs your are using different settings: "mail.gmx.net" : 465 SSL. so please double check those.

@pmelas - So works now ? If so please close the question. Thanks.

VDVsx ( 2014-03-26 12:37:09 +0300 )edit

@VDVsx not sure how to close it, do I have enough karma? I've accepted an answer.

Done :) Thx!

I think I saw this happen after I entered wrong password when I was creating a new POP account. Changing the password later didn't help, I had to delete and re-create the account. If this trick works for you too, please let us know and I'll file a bug.

I will try to recreate the account and try again, it might be some thing wrong with my settings, here is the recommended settings from the provider: https://hilfe.gmx.net/mailprogramme/pop3.html
