#171008 — cannot POST in Icedove

Subjectcannot POST in Icedove
Message-ID<s5baN-4C5-13@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi all,

I am trying to set up icedove on Sid. I only want to use it for 
Newsgroups, specifically Linux Debian User.

That works and I see all the posts.

But I cannot post.

The SMTP server is set up like:

Desciption: <not specified>
Server Name: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
User Name: <gmail userid>
Authentication Method:Normal password
Connection security: SSL/TLS

What more has to be done for SSL/TLS, does anything need to be installed?

That post worked.

But on reply I get a message:

Login to smtp.gmail.com failed, enter new password.

and it loops on that.

But Followup works! What's the difference between followup and reply?

At a guess (and it is only a guess) follow-up is for newsgroups and reply for 
Email.  And for email via SMTP you need your gmail password for the gmail 
SMTP server.

If you're using icedove ONLY for newsgroups (NNTP), then you don't need 
to set up an SMTP account. SMTP is used to sending email, but NNTP is a 
two-way protocol, allowing you to read AND post to newsgroups.

However, if you're reading your newsgroups through some other means 
(it's possible to gateway newsgroups to a different protocol such as 
IMAP or a web page, in which case, yes, you'd need an SMTP account to 
semd messages back. This is how sites like Gmane work).

Thanks, Darac, that was not clear. I use icedove ONLY for newsgroups.
