« on: November 26, 2014, 09:16:56 am »Yes but that didn't cause the socket error. It was only default because I reinstalled the Silence Detector to test (that this field was reset to default). When I use Google SMTP DNS I still got the 1101 error.
Edit: Wow, and now smtp.gmail.com:587 is working! Perhaps reinstalling the Silence Detector helped after all. It might be worth nothing that I copied the config over from App Data, from the working machine. It loaded fine so I assumed the profile had migrated correctly.

« on: November 26, 2014, 09:15:29 am »OK I fixed it. With the change above, and changing the default '@' in the 'To:' and 'From:' fields to my address, the email got through. Seems the @ character caused issues with the handshake.
Yes, it may be difficult to send an email if you didn't specify the sender and recipient

Cheers for the help:)
I wonder what the issue is with the DNS?

Could it be that my isp is blocking outgoing SMTP? The working machine is at another address.

« on: November 26, 2014, 12:32:39 am »I have Silence Detector working on an old PC. I'm migrating to a new one. On a new install, when sending an email I get...
ERROR: Socket Error # 11001 Host Not Found.
I have allowed Pira CZ through my firewall (also tested with firewall disabled).
I am using "smtp.gmail.com:587" as per here here.
I have also reinstalled the app.
Any ideas?
