EmailStartSession(gSessionSMTP)

Hi All

as of yesterday without any changes to the windev source, I am, sometimes, getting an error which says:

The target principal name is incorrect.

when sending emails.

has anybody seen this and perhaps help solve it?

Internet search refers to MSsql configuration. I am using Mysql and nothing has changed since yesterday.

Any help appreciated.

Tanks

Are you using TLS oe SSL to connect to the SMTP server?

Search "smtp the target principal name is incorrect" and you will find some explanations.


If it's some TLSor SSL problem with the certicate or the name/IP you are using in the connection you can try to use EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode, 1) before the EmailStartSMTPSession

Thanks Paulo. Will try and let you know.

Hi Paulo,

This has worked for the last couple of days. It seems that was the solution. Thank you

Noel

so what did you change?

I added this line :

EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode, 1) before the emailstartsession


EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode,1)

IF EmailStartSession(gSessionSMTP)=True THEN
EmailSendMessage(gSessionSMTP,anEmail)
RESULT True
ELSE
Info(ErrorInfo(errMessage))
RESULT False
END
