[Bluej-discuss] Fwd: help

[Cecilia Vargas]

TJ replied to me privately that he has solved his problem. But to close 
this thread and for the benefit of the list audience, I'll say that a 
530 response from the SMTP server indicates that it requires 
authentication. To indicate in the submitter that you want to 
authenticate with the server, tick the 'Use name and password' checkbox 
in the Submitter Preferences panel, and enter a username next to the 
checkbox. .You will be prompted for your smtp-server password after you 
click on the 'Submit' button.

I will add that to use the BlueJ Submitter, you have to know how ports 
are configured in your SMTP server. For example, in the gmail server, 
port 465 requires authentication and an SSL connection, and port 25 is 
blocked. But in my institution's server, port 25 works, and port 465 can 
use either an SSL or a TLS connection. Different SMTP servers are 
configured differently, so you have to enter the appropriate information 
in the Submitter Preferences panel.
