Ok. I took out all the smtp/username information and it is now working fine. Don't know why it worked the first time with it in there. Looks like it didn't need it.
Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the replies.
I have authentication set. It worked when I set it up and registered myself as a user.
I tried it without authentication and got the same error.
smtp.1and1.com is correct. I have my emails working correctly with Mozilla, and that is what they gave for setup. In the USA.
I'll call 1and1 support today when they open to see if it is something on their end.
Any other ideas?

Topic: smtp error - connection refused (4 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
Hi,
First let me say that this was an easy, quick forum to install. Even for a novice like me.
When I installed it yesterday, everything worked fine. Tonight while testing it again I cannot get it to send the confirmation email. I am getting this error:
Could not connect to smtp host "smtp.1and1.com" (111) (Connection refused).
I tried another smtp from another site I have hosted and got the same error.
Worked fine yesterday. Any help or suggestions appreciated.
No reason why my host would block the script is there?
Many thanks,
Lou
