Can you create a smtp log, see

already try to create a smtp log with method you mentioned, but no content was
loged in log file.

BTW, I also try remove 1.7.5 and instal 1.7.3 again, seems the problem is also
reproduced.

Which SMTP server do you use?

Comment 4

Company's SMTP server and smtp.gmail.com
Is it possible the problem is caused by other s/w or configuration?

Comment 5

TLS works fine for me (wiht Mozilla 1.7.5) with smtp.gmail.com, Settings are
smtp.gmail.com (port 25, as normal) as server and TLS enabled.
