I use the email that came with my Office 365 subscription. But I haven't found out what information to use. So far, 'smtp.office365.com' and port 587, along with the combinations for the check boxes don't allow Nop to send test emails.
After looking closer at the errors I was getting I figured it out. The email I had in the Email address line was different from the User line, and since I didn't give the user I was using permission to send emails on behalf of the other email, I was getting an error.
So here is the working setup that I finally got working.
Email Address: [email protected] (needs to be the same as the user email unless you give the proper send permissions in office 365) Email Display Name: Random Name Host: smtp.office365.com Port: 587 User: [email protected] Password: Office 365 password for user [email protected] SSL: checked Use Default Credentials: unchecked
An error occurred while attempting to establish an SSL or TLS connection. This usually means that the SSL certificate presented by the server is not trusted by the system for one or more of the following reasons: 1. The server is using a self-signed certificate which cannot be verified. 2. The local system is missing a Root or Intermediate certificate needed to verify the server's certificate. 3. A Certificate Authority CRL server for one or more of the certificates in the chain is temporarily unavailable. 4. The certificate presented by the server is expired or invalid. Another possibility is that you are trying to connect to a port which does not support SSL/TLS. It is also possible that the set of SSL/TLS protocols supported by the client and server do not match. See https://github.com/jstedfast/MailKit/blob/master/FAQ.md#SslHandshakeException for possible solutions.
I think that I correctly followed the steps in Method 3, but I'm getting an error when attempting to send a test email, "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. "
With regards to step 9, would the MX record from step 3 be pasted into the "Host" in NopCommerce?
