iOS Question B4i not sending Email

[Falcon]

Good Day Code Warriors,

I am able to send emails in B4A no problem, but for some reason I cannot get it to work in B4i.

The code I use use in B4A:

       Dim Mail as SMTP

        Mail.Initialize(strSMTPServerAddress, strSMTPServerPort, strUserName, strPassword, "Email")
        Mail.UseSSL = False
        Mail.To.Add(strMailToAddress)
        Mail.Subject = "Test"
        Mail.Body = "Hello World"
        Mail.Sender = strSenderEmailAddress
   
        Mail.Send

Now if I use the exact same code in B4i with the exact same Server credentials, I get the following:

Application_Start
Application_Active
C: Attempting to connect to server at: mail.xxxxxxxxx.co.za:25 <----- I just changed my domain name here not to show it in the forum, but it is correct
S: 220 winmails03.hostserv.co.za
C: EHLO localhost

S: 250-winmails03.hostserv.co.za Hello [105.226.177.206]
S: 250-SIZE 26214400
S: 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5
S: 250-8BITMIME
S: 250 OK
C: AUTH LOGIN

C: aW5mbB3XZlY3Jliuc3Rob2xpZGF5cy5jby56YQ==

C: S2xlaW5tbjk5kMzAxMA==

S: 334 VXNlmnj5hbWU6
S: 535 Authentication failed

When I translate the Base64 strings above, it is my Username, Password (They are correct) and then a string that just says 'Username:'

Now it is saying Authentication Failed but I cannot understand why, since my Username & Password are correct.

Any idea what I am doing wrong here?

Thank you for your time,

Regards,
Jacques,

iNet SMTP implementation doesn't support MD5 login.

Where is the MessageSent event? Post the full error message from the logs.

Hi Erel, thanks for the reply.

No error actually occurs, it just does not send the message.
The 'MessageSent' event also does not fire.

 

[Erel]

Please post the event sub code.

 

[Falcon]

My apologies Erel, the 'MessageSent' event does in fact fire, but 'Success' parameter = 0 and I get the Log message as shown above.
No other errors occur.

My event sub is simply:

Private Sub Email_MessageSent(Success As Boolean)
   
    Msgbox("Message sent","")
    
End Sub

 

[Erel]

First step is to find the error:

Private Sub Email_MessageSent(Success As Boolean)
    Log(Success)
    If Success = False Then Log(LastException)
End Sub

 

[Falcon]

Thank you very much for the help Erel I appreciate it.

I get this error:
<B4IExceptionWrapper: Error Domain=SKPSMTPMessageError Code=535 "Invalid username or password." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Invalid username or password., NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Go to Email Preferences in the application and re-enter your username and password.}>

But I can't understand why since my Username & password are correct. I have checked them 10 times, I actually copy and pasted them from my working VB.Net code so I know they are 100% correct.

 

[Erel]

I think that the MD5 authentication method is the problem.

 

[Falcon]

I see. Is there any workaround or way of fixing this Erel?

 

[Erel]

I can try to add it but you will need to send me the credentials so I can test it.

 

[Falcon]

Thank you so much Erel that would be awesome! I will send you my credentials.
