CF has stopped sending emails

[Guest]

I have one website running on CFMX7 for IIS, where mails have been working ok.. until Apache was installed on that server to run a second site. At that time a switch of ports was also made, so that the CF driven site is not anymore on default port 80, but on 8085.
Since then, all has been working ok apart from mails that are undelivered. I can see them in the Undelivr folder - in the mail.log all show 'Authentication failed'. Still, as I click 'Verify Connection' in CF admin's Mail settings it still says that connection is ok. I am confused that Mail settings seem ok, while mails give 'Authentication failed'?
Any help appreciated

Hi there, is there any chance you have specified different authentication information (username / password / server-address) in your actual CFMAIL Tag? Might be a silly suggestion, but I have "done this" once, later changed a user password and hence ended up in a similar situation. I'm sure you know this, but if you specify other information in the actual cf file /tag this will override the CF Admin settings.

Good luck,
Jonas

What happens if you restart CF and move the mail from undelivr to spool?

Look at one of the messages and make sure the SMTP host in the header is correct.
