   Hi,

   is this plugin going to support TLS/SSL encryption at some point like the Cimy Swift SMTP plugin for wordpress?

   I'm asking this because my i'd need it for my Google hosted emailing which is TLS/SSL only - i'm sure quite a few others would appreciate that too.

   best regards and keep up the good work

   Hi there,
   I know that this plugin works for the 1.0-alpha-2 version, i was jus curious about, is there any way i can make it work for the “Brubeck” version 0.9.0.5. Actually earliear i had the unstable version installed, which obv. was working perfectly fine, but the only issue with it was that in it most of my other plugins were not working properly. now with the stable version live, its only the smtp plugin which is not working. I desperately need an alternative to it... hope you could help.
   thanx in adv.

   Great plugin!
   Tried to use it with the smtp server from gmail, but that results into an error.
   Is here someone with a working example to send the mails via smtp.gmail.com?

   I'm using now the smtp server from my server, but since my domain's email is configured with google apps I would like to send the smtp mail with gmail too

   This plugin didn't work for me. My Forum is hosted on yahoo server. But Cimy swift SMTP for bbPress worked perfectly using my Gmail settings.

   You can use 3rd party SMTP servers too, if you do that you need to add the smtp server address to your domains SPF record.

   I don't know anything about how to configure for an SMTP server, but I am not getting any emails from bbPress and am looking for a solution. Will this work out of the box if I merely change the email address in line 60 after, "// Set a specific name that emails will appear to come from"? Thanks.

   This plugin doesn't appear to be working for me, I don't receive any errors, but no emails also. If I go to "recover my password" it will tell me the email failed to send. The values to fill in are somewhat vague when you're asking for sender name, smtp auth username, etc. Do you want full name? "person@domain"? For smtp auth, does it require "domainname\username"? or just "username"?

   I'm running bbPress 1.0.2. Any help for modifying this would be great, so far I can only register using an email ON my local domain - any external email isn't going (prior to using this plugin).

   For all of those interested, it is really really easy to patch this to do SSL/TLS.

   Under the top SETTINGS area add the following:
   

   // SSL/TLS SUpport ('', 'ssl', 'tls')
   var $smtp_ssl = '';

   and in the function inject_smtp_setting add the following after the smtp_auth block.
   if ($this->smtp_ssl) $mailer_object->SMTPSecure = $this->smtp_ssl;

   Configure your settings and you're good. For gmail (or google apps).
   

   var $smtp_host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
   var $smtp_port = 465;
   var $smtp_auth = true;
   var $smtp_user = '[your_email]';
   var $smtp_pass = '[your_password]';
   var $stmp_ssl = 'ssl';

   I hope this helps!
