SQL Server 2008 DatabaseMail not connecting to smtp.zoho.com (Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (The operation has timed out.))
Hi,
I've set up several accounts & profiles in DatabaseMail. I am able to send to one of the other smtp servers I set up but with smtp.zoho.com it comes back with this error:
Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (The operation has timed out.)
I am using port 465 with SSL enabled. The email account that is working is configured for port 587 and is not SSL enabled.
I have both POP and IMAP enabled in my zoho (mydomain) account. Using Basic Authentication with my full email address and password.
I also have firewall outbound rules to allow both SQL Server and DatabaseMail.
My next step may be to test with a mail client such as Outlook or TBird from the same machine but wanted to post this first as this seems like a pretty straightforward configuration. What gives?
