Login Denied using Email Tool

xa_gupta

Hi community,

I have a workflow to send personalized letters to different email ids using email tool over SMTP service. 

Unfortunately, it is giving an error saying Login Denied.

 

I have plugged correct email credentials, and SMTP parameters as advised by the IT team.

 

Please help me with resolution.

@xa_gupta, try contacting your IT team for SMTP connection maybe they are blocking it, or try with None Encryption.

 

Thanks!

Sapna, thanks for sharing your input.

Upon changing the encryption to None I received the error - "Failed to send to one or more recipients" (emails are valid - I rechecked that too). Please take a look in the attachment.

 

To add more on second point, I have checked with the IT, and there are no restrictions placed in SMTP connections, and they are working fine.

 

Please also find the workflow package attached.

@xa_gupta , try using SSL/TLS in encryption.

That may work for you?

 

Thanks!

@xa_gupta, I have tried sending an email to my dummy account it actually worked.

I have two emails from different organizations. It worked for one organization and for others it displayed the same error as yours that is Login Denied. Therefore I would suggest you reach out to your IT team and ask if the email can only be used for internal emailing or maybe you can reach out to support@alteryx.com.

If you get any solution from support Alteryx please post it here so that other users can also refer to that post and solve the issue.

Thank you for your input.

SSL/TLS did not work either. I have sent an email to support. I will update once I get a solution.

Gupta, try setting encryption to None and make sure you don't have spaces between your emails in the To or CC fields and try separating them with , or ;.

 

name1@email.com;name2@email.com etc...

I think you. Need to confirm a y company policy as it relates to a workstation being allowed to send emails using your SMTP.

In my workflow there is only 1 email, so no separator or gaps are used.  Also, I have tried it with None encryption that did not work as well. 
 
Hi I have checked with IT and smtp is working fine and I have access.

@xa_gupta - Instead of using smtp.office365.com use IP address.
