AuthSMTP - CyruSoft Mulberry 3.x (Alternate Port)

Important Points

• These instructions assume your email account has already been setup and is collecting email correctly.

• Take a note of any settings you change.

• Only change the items specified - you should not need to change either your email address, POP3 server, POP3 username / password.

• These instructions are only for Cyrusoft Mulberry 3.x - for other email programs please see How To Setup AuthSMTP or contact us.

• We have instructions for both default SMTP port and alternate SMTP port configurations - alternate port is generally used if your ISP blocks the normal port 25 SMTP access (as many do these days!).

Step One

• Load Mulberry 3.x

• From the main screen open the 'Files' menu and then select 'Preferences...'

Step Two

• Select the 'Accounts' tab

• Drop-down the 'Account:' box and select 'SMTP'

Step Three

• Change the 'Server:' to the AuthSMTP server we supplied with your signup email - to specify an alternate SMTP port number use: server-name:port-number - for instance for port 2525 (the alternate port we recommend) you would enter: mail.authsmtp.com:2525

• On the 'Authenticate' tab below you can set the 'Method:' to either 'Plain Text', 'CRAM-MD5' or 'DIGEST-MD5' ('NTLM' is not currently compatible) - we recommend: CRAM-MD5

• Enter the AuthSMTP username and password we supplied when you signed up

• IMPORTANT: 'authsmtp.username' is an example - if your AuthSMTP username was 'ab12345' enter it as that and *not* as 'authsmtp.ab12345'

• Tick 'Save User ID'

• Tick 'Save Password'

• Click the 'OK' button and it will return you to the main Mulberry screen

Step Four

• Mulberry will not ask you for the password until you actually send a message - so create and send one

• When you go to send it will pop up with the box below with your user ID already entered.

• Enter your password and click the 'OK' button and the message should send.

• All done!
