SMTP Error 56

[diegoalexander]

Hi, everyone.

I'm getting the error 56 at sending emai using the SMTP Sending Email Message.

I doubt about my server string, for example like smtp.gmail.com or like snt405-m.hotmail.com,  

If I'm wrong, how is the correct way to write the mail server string, I added the port like smtp.gmail.com:25 but it doesn't work either.

Error 56 is a timeout error. In other words the remote computer (in this case an SMTP server) didn't respond in time. The first thing to do is see if you can ping the server.

Also, the complete error message should say what stage in the process is returning the error.

What version of LabVIEW are you using? It looks old and the older versions did not support smtp servers (such as gmail) that required authentication.

I'm using labview version 12.0.

And the complete error message  is:

Error 56 occurred at TCP Open Connection in NI_SMTPEmail.lvlib:SMTP Email Open Session.vi:3->NI_SMTPEmail.lvlib:SMTP Email Send Message Charset.vi:2->NI_SMTPEmail.lvlib:SMTP Email Send Message.vi:1->BDD.vi
