SUMMARY When I try and send email to a Postfix SMTP server nothing gets sent out. I have two machines with identical settings with one running 5.9.3 and the other running 5.10. The version running 5.9.3 works fine. The version running 5.10 never even tries to connect to my smtp server. The settings are identical on both machines. I'll also note that 5.10 also is not able to send for another account using EWS whereas 5.9.3 does work, again, with identical settings. When I test the SMTP connection, everything is good. It recognizes port 587 with TLS and plain password authentication. The outgoing mail server, login and password are identical as is the server requiring authentication. The advanced settings are also identical via auto detect, STARTTLS, port 587 and plain authentication without any proxy. I also maintain the Postfix server so I can monitor the logs in realtime. 5.9.3 works as expected but with 5.10 there is never any incoming connection to the server. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Write an email 2. Hit send 3. See email stuck in local outbox folder OBSERVED RESULT No connection is made to the SMTP server. EXPECTED RESULT Kontact/KMail should at least make a TCP connection to port 587 on the specified server.
