| Hi all....Our company use yahoo business mail server for our corporate mails. I know that I can configure database mail with SMTP. But when I try to configure database mail account with yahoo bizmail, I cannot do that. It gets configured but when I test it it doesn't send any mails. Do I need to have any special condiguration for this. SMTP address is smtp.bizmail.yahoo.com. Also I have specified the Authentication using my user name and password. Please helpThanks Rajesh |

| 1. Created the database mail profile2. Added new database mail account with Server name as "smtp.bizmail.yahoo.com" and Port number as 25. Then SMTP Authentication as basic authentication where I specified User name : yahoo user name and Password : yahoo password Confiuration succeeds without any error. But no mail received after sending test mail.Thanks for your support.... |
