Dear Member,

I receive this error while registering :

"Failed to connect to mailout.one.com:25 [SMTP: Failed to connect socket: Connection timed out (code: -1, response: )]".

Added to LocalSettings.php :

$wgSMTP = array(

'host' => 'mailout.one.com',

'IDHost' => 'one.com',

'port' => 25,

'username' => '',

'password' => '',

'auth' => false

);

Comment from one.com :

1 Please use mailout.one.com instead for SMTP Server.

2 Are you using mail() script and used SMTP as option to send email from your script? If yes, unfortunately, SMTP will not work. You will need to use a regular mail() script.

3 Port 465 is used for SMTP. You can also check that in the Control Panel > Mail Administration > Technical Information. For sending mail via a mail program, we recommend 587 or 2525, since most ISPs have this ports open. In some cases, one or two of these ports are blocked by users ISP. For sending mail via script at One.com, always use server mailout.one.com and port 25.

Why do I receive the error from the e-mail program? What can be improved?

Thank you.

Hansie
