Hi
I am using mailbee objects (SMTP and POP3) to connect to an exim mail server, for POP3 server the connection is succesfull, for SMTP this server requires authentication, but first the user must login on the POP3 server. I try to connect separatly using the POP3 object, but I haven´t solve the problem.
My log is:
16:59:17 [MailBee SMTP v. 5.3.0.47. Registered version]
16:59:17 [Connecting to server mail.eargot.com at port 25 using default domain]
16:59:38 [Error: Socket.Connect returned code -5]
16:59:38 [Error: Connection failure]
Thanks for your help.

Most likely, the web server is behind a firewall (or you've firewall-like antivirus running such as Symantec). Make sure you're able to establish connections on port 25 from your web server to mail.eargot.com.
You can use telnet utility to check this. On the web server machine, type in the command line:
telnet mail.eargot.com 25[enter]
If you do not see SMTP server prompt, the web server is not allowed to make connections on port 25.
Regards,
Alex
