Using iPage for email host

[Lucas McBride]

Does anyone have any experience using iPage as an email host?

I've tried using the instructions on the Django Docs for setting up email hosts: 

EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.ipage.com'

EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'in...@be-a.rocks'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = '********'
EMAIL_PORT = 143

But I just get a SMTPConnectError

(-1, b'[CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE UNSELECT STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot ready.')

iPage really does not have any useful support for this so I was wondering if anyone here has had to use iPage with Django that can help me out!

Thanks!

Hey Lucas, 

you tried the imap Port not the smtp port. 

Dovecot is an imap service not smtp! 

Try port 587 this should be the right post to deliver emails as client. 

Kind Regards,

Hi Soeren!

Thanks for responding!

I tried using the new port and it is now a new error. There is a SMTPRecipientsRefused error:

{'mcbride...@gmail.com': (451, b'Temporary local problem - please try later')}

Any idea what this means?

Thanks again!

Hi Lucas, 

i don't know this provider, maybe there is something not correct. 

Did you try to deliver an email via telnet to see what is going wrong?

But remember to use port 587.

Kind regards,

Hi Lucas, 

I checked the FAQ from ipage. 

You should use startssl for Port 587.

It is described in the Django email instructions. 

EMAIL_USE_TLS is needed! 

Kind regards,
