I can send an email using Thunderbird. I use the same smtp server address when installing blat. But, blat does not send the email. I get the following error:

Error:  Server refused connection.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Sounds like you may trying to use a regular connect rather than an http*s* connection. Or you may be useing the regular 80 port rather than the SSL port 443 (or something like that).

  • It looks like the email in Thunderbird is being sent using Extended SMTP. But, why would the smtp server accept that email and not an email with simply SMTP. Is there a major difference between the two? – zooropa Oct 26 '10 at 12:12
  • Yes, if you are not using the correct ports for encrypted/non-encrypted. – Keng Oct 26 '10 at 12:14
