B4J Question 503 polite people say HELO first (email error)

[Nokia]

I am getting this error when I try to send an email:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Empty writer returned: 503 polite people say HELO first.

does anybody know what I am missing?

  If FirstTime Then
  SMTP.Initialize(strServerAdr, iPort, strUser, strPassword, "SMTP")
     Select Case iMode
       Case 1
       SMTP.StartTLSMode = True
       Case 2
         SMTP.UseSSL = True
     End Select
     
   Log(SMTP.UseSSL)
   Log(SMTP.StartTLSMode)
   
  End If
   'SMTP.AuthMethod = SMTP.AUTH_CRAM_MD5
  SMTP.To.Add(strTo)
  SMTP.Subject = "iNetStatus - Test message"
  SMTP.Body = "This is a test notification from iNetStatus software." &  _
         " This message Is sent To indicate the email setting for the software are correct"
  'SMTP.AddAttachment(File.DirRootExternal, "somefile")
  SMTP.Send

There is no FirstTime in B4J. Are you asking about B4A or B4J?

 

[Nokia]

B4J,, I have tried it both ways.. this code was working... as is...

this code was working... as is...

What has changed? Are you connecting to a different mail server?

 

[Nokia]

same server as allways.. Godaddy.com servers.. I don't know if they updated anything, but putting in the same setting as my outlook...

 

[Erel]

Have you tried it with all the AuthMethod options?

 

[Nokia]

ya.. I have tried the Auth_Plan, Auth_Login and Auth_Cram_md5, I still get the same response..

 

[Erel]

Do you have access the the mail server logs?

I figured out the issue, it was my antivirus blocking some of the communication. when I turned off or added app to be excluded it now sends the emails..
