    Hi !

    I'm using Acronis True Image Windows Server 9.1 Build 3 694 on 4 different servers and never was able to use email notification, each test I did was unsuccesful. It doesn't work. Can somebody tell me what could be wrong and how to use it ?

    Thanks with advance

    Hi ematisopa,

    I know you can't use what I call Web based E-Mail services, like Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail. I use comcast & had to put my Email in this way <ME@comcast.net> notice the <> before & after the E-Mail address.

    Hope that helps,
    Steve

    the < and > are key and in addition I found through searching this forum that at least for ATI 10 NOT entering a user name and password was the ticket for me to getting it to work

    some else said to put / before and after. I have tried <> and / and same no working result. This for whosit@cox.net. When doing the email test, it immediately responds with "cannot send test email" as if it doesnt even attempt to send.

    Thanks all

    Using the <adress@isp.com> form and not entering a user name and password getted it to work.

    I suggest Acronis to add it in the Help windows and in the user guide !

    Yep, me too! Removed username and password - working a treat!

    Didn't have to use the <> either.

    I did the <whosit@cox.com> with no user name and password and it worked!.......for one PC. But when I try it on another PC on my LAN........no joy.

    I got it to work finally. My problem was the virus detection program. A protection to prevent mass mailing worms from send email was invoked. I had to uncheck it an then the email started working of course, after I put the <> around the address.

    I found that on my remote lan I needed to use an smtpauth.earthlink.net server on port 587 (I used the default 25 at home) and use my email sign in and password to get it to send the mail successfully
