[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger 5.4.0 & Office365 SMTP?

[Alan Lord]

Anyone got this working?

On the same vtiger 5.4.0 system I can correctly configure the outgoing 
server for GMail (ssl://smtp.gmail.com:465) and our own smtp server.

However trying to connect to the office365 I get the dreaded:

> Thu Feb 20 14:18:31 2014,355 [9624] DEBUG index - Error in Mail Sending : Error log = 'SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host1111111111=======>.'

This system is on an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server. And we use this set up all 
the time.

The last time I came across this error was when installing vtiger on a 
CentOS machine and we ended up having to disable SELinux (But that was 
for gmail)

Gmail works fine here and Ubuntu doesn't use SELinux

I've tried ssl:// and/or tls:// but I don't actually think the smtp 
connect is getting out of the server by the looks of that error message 
- it happens too soon in the connect process.

If I install a lightweight smtp client like msmtp I can connect to 
Office365 just fine:

> $ msmtp --serverinfo --host=outlook.office365.com --tls=on --tls-certcheck=off --port=587
> SMTP server at outlook.office365.com ([157.56.251.50]), port 587:

Anyone got any ideas?
