error while running test mail

  • Hi,

    I have sql 2005 installed and database mail has been set up. all the parameters have been correctly entered. however when I run the test mail I get the error

    The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 9 (2013-12-05T16:48:27). Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated). )

    any thoughts on this.. highly appreciated

    Regards

  • Hi, check if you have correctly set up the mail account in database mail, with all the parameters of the SMTP server, and check also if the database mail is enabled. Are you using a proxy in order to send the email?
