Question

Will upgrading from CF9 to CF10 fix cfpop with Office 365 TLS problem?

We currently have CF 9 and have an application that uses cfpop.  We are upgrading company mail to use Office 365.  I was able to get cfmail working with Office 365 no problem, but cfpop is not working I believe because of the Office 365 TLS requirement.  If I upgrade to CF 10, will the new cfpop feature of "secure="yes"" enable cfpop to work with Office 365?  I do not want to upgrade at this time if that will not fix our problem.

Thank you!

    I did find this post outlining the proper settings in the cfadmin (CF10) for using Office365. If you can try that on that CF10 server...

    I can send email through cfmail just fine via Office 365, I just cannot access using cfpop.  Trying to determine if the cfpop feature "secure" ADDED in CF 10 fixes the Office 365 connection issue.

    Just an update - I still could not get it to work on CF 10 using the secure attribute, but I did get it to work on CF 9 simply by inserting the exact 5 lines of code from this post - cfpop and gmail | Anuj Gakhar  So, not upgrading for now - will probably wait for CF 11/plesk compatibility at this point.

    While I would suggest updating to CF11, this post may outline a solution to help you around your issue.

    Thanks.  CF10 added SSL support, and I know it will work with Gmail accounts as I have found threads of others using it for Gmail successfully, but I cannot find anything about Office 365.  I have CF10 on another server and started playing with it there, but no success so far.  Get the error:

     

    This exception was caused by: com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException: Couldn't connect to host, port: outlook.office365.com, 995; timeout -1; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect. <br>The error occurred on line 1. /admin/cheryl/emailtest.cfm

    I will try the javascript though.  Cant upgrade to CF11 right now as the host and Plesk don't support it yet.
