I have been trying to configure the email for the forum on my site and i am running on error after error with the email setup. I did search the forum and followed all the troublshooting  tips possible.
My webhosting provides ASPEmail as the email component. I have also setup the SMTP (mail.mydomain.com) now I am getting the following error message. 

Persits.MailSender.4 error '800a0006'

503 This mail server requires authentication. Please check your mail client settings.

/forum/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 268

Like the error says, it requires authentication...

Not sure if the latest version has those variables for auth in there but if not go to the email function.asp page and add as follows before sending:


<%
...
Mail.Username = "ProbablyyourPopUsername"
Mail.Password = "********"
...
Mail.Send
%>
