gmail STARTTLS "non-local recipient"

[joolz]

I'm trying to do a mailing via Gmail.

All the settings are correct (as described by maxprog with smtp.gmail.com, the email as account id, authentication by esmtp and the correct password. Gmail is enabled for imap), and I've tried working with a number of different Gmail accounts but am getting the same result each time as follows:

At the bottom of the window is the error message "delivery not allowed to non-local recipient"

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks in advance.

What version of MaxBulk Mailer are you using?

 

[joolz]

It's an old version - v2.8.

I hope that's not going to be the problem - don't really want to spend €70 on an app used only a couple of times a year :-(

 

[stanbusk]

Yes it is a problem since I believe that version doesn't support secure connections. Secure connections were added later.

oh poo

thanks for clarifying that though stanbusk
