I changed hosting providers and got the incoming email working fine. I guess I forgot to change the outgoing email accounts and now they've quit working.
I've set up for the new hosting provider, which means using the normal method of entering my domain name with name. in front for both incoming and outgoing servers.
After reading a bit of another thread here, I enabled "Secure Sockets when Sending" and set to "Required, Alternate Port". This gets to a point where the attempt is made, but errors out on the SSL certificate.
Unknown Error Certificate Bad: Destination host name does not match host name in certificate But ignoring this error because Certificate is trusted The connection with server has been lost.
Did this simply time out or did the server kill it?
The certificate starts out:
Certificate:
Data:
Version: 3 (0x2)
I don't have the Hermes files installed. Do I need to do that? I hate trying too many new things as it makes it hard to know what is causing what.

Thanks to those who have provided advice in all the other threads. I will say, the instructions are a bit awkward. Like the explanation for copying the contents of the Hermes directory to the Eudora directory is very odd. The step of copying the path
Anyway, thanks to whomever produced the Hermes files. After some 20 years, I'd hate to have to give up on Eudora now.

Really glad to see that you got it sorted out!
Using Eudora without the Hermes update will pretty soon be impossible I would say.
Cheers, Dave.
I almost forgot, I can't send email to one of my customers, because the MonsterHost IP address is blacklisted by Spamhaus. I need to put in a ticket about that... actually, I thought I had, but I don't see it. Maybe I never completed it.

I fully understand and accept that they are necessary sometimes, but blacklists can be an absolute PITA.
I couldn't e-mail from the UK to a relative in the States as her e-mail service had my service on a spamming blacklist!
This proved to be unresolvable. Very annoying.
