After the Firmware update to my Xerox® VersaLink® C405DN MFP, the Scan to E-mail using AOL ceased to function. To date it still doesn't work.
Installed on: 06/11/2020 - 09:56
Having tried all settings
Xerox® VersaLink® C405DN MFP
AOL Username: full email address
Password: account password (tried Desktop sync, Android Sync and normal password)
SMTP Server: smtp.aol.com
SELECT A DIFFERENT SERVER: option never returns if the XEROX selection is used (CRASH and hang)
mx-aol.aol.Yahoo.dns.net or what ever the wierd adress is the appears.
Port: 587
Encryption: STARTTLS, STARTTLS as needed, and SSL/TLS (as stated for AOL)
Funny that a connection is capable of presenting connection OK using no password, with password and user (shows user or password wrong) I suspect it is the encryption.
I've tried
DESKTOP Sync password from AOL
MY STANDARD PASSWORD from AOL
ANDROID SYNC Password from AOL
and nothing works. Xerox dumps the SMTP authentication settings with every failure and it must be set-up again and again. This is in it self a pain.
My router can connect and send email, using the DESKTOP SYNC PASSWORD from AOL
SMTP Server: smtp.aol.com
Port: 587
Encryption: SSL/TLS (as stated for AOL)
My Mobile Telephone works with Microsoft Outlook and the ANDROID SYNC PASSWORD from AOL
Same settings as the Router
My Laptop works fine using microsoft Outlook with the STANDARD PASSWORD from AOL and the same settings (in fact it finds the settings on its own after adding E-Mail adress, then requests the password).
This proves the settings and passwords work. So what is XEROX doing with Scan to E-mail that is quirky when using AOL?
