News Sources

[sisterphonetica]

None of my news sources are downloading anymore. Just getting error messages. I'm not very technical and haven't changed anything.

Are you using the latest version of calibre? News recipes are changed often as websites get updated, and you will need to have the latest version of calibre to take advantage of updates to the news recipes.

If you still have the problem with the latest version of calibre (currently 1.41) then you may need to let calibre past your firewall or somthing...

I am indeed using the latest version, to no avail.

[eschwartz]

Can you post the error message you are getting?

[sisterphonetica]

Here we are. It looks like it's something to do with my email now I'm looking at this log. No time to change it now but will come back to it later!

So the poblem appears not to be downloading the recipes but emailing them afterwards.

SMTPAuthenticationError so your login is wrong.
