I have tried and tried to get the email feature to work, and I'm stumped. I've searched these forums, and it appears that most folks solved this sort of problem by getting a gmail account. I've done that, and I still get an error message. Here's the output from my latest test (from my gmail account to my att account):


Traceback (most recent call last):

File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/wizard/send_email.py", line 98, in test_email_settings

File "site-packages/calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 82, in sendmail

IOError: Failed to send mail: error(60, 'Operation timed out')

Log:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "lib/python2.6/socket.py", line 514, in create_connection

error: [Errno 60] Operation timed out

Just for kicks I also tried to send a message from my gmail account to my gmail account. Here's the error I get from that:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Note that I'm using the Mac version of Calibre, and my ISP is AT&T.

Any help would be much appreciated!
