Newbie question

Hi
I have started working from scratch to learn Aware IM.

I am stuck in the Quicktour document. I have made the initial application, but there is something wrong with my email settings.

And now I cannot find where to change the settings. I know I filled them in somewhere along the line, but now when I read the manual I don't find where to do it,

Any help appreciated.

Hi again,
Found it.

However I get the following error:

Email was not sent due to exception com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException Couldn't connect to host, port: [email protected], 465; timeout -1

Per-Olof

The error indicates Aware not being able to connect to the email provider. Doublecheck so your email settings are correct and if you still get the same error, try changing the port and security settings Aware use to connect to the email provider i.e the SSL, TLS etc. settings + the accompanying port settings).

Thanks,

I will try,

Is it possible to use a Gmail account to send mail?

I actually tried with my gmail account, and got this error in stead

Email was not sent due to exception javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException 534-5.7.9 Application-specific password required. Learn more at

What does it mean "Application -specific password required"

Ok,
was able to fix a specific password via this link:
https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswor ... kdLcW4iN2Q

but still get an error:

Ok,
