Question

emailing photos from photoshop to my email client

When I try to set up photoshop elements to use my email client, the "configure email client" won't allow me to choose the SMTP port # I need to use when I choose SSL/TLS for "connection security". When I enter the correct SMTP port#, the program changes the "connection secuirty" back to STARTTLS for "connection security. Stangely enough when I click "validate", i receive a "validation passed". But when i try to share a photo by email i receive an error, "the connection was interrupted".

Photos are often too big to email, and even if you can send a big file it can cause problems to your recipients. I advise you NOT to email photo unless you have already reduced them to the size of web photos. Use a service designed to send large files, not email.

I think for the time being I will stick with Export as New File. I don't often send photos, I'm mainly interested getting them prepared for printing. Thanks for the suggestions.

I'm not exactly sure what to answer, Shaw.ca, 

the SMTP server is mail.shaw.ca

The email client is the email software you are using on your computer.

 

Could be Outlook, Gmail, Thunderbird etc.

Sorry, not sure if you saw this reply? Hope this is what you're looking for.

Could it be Zimbra?
