I upgraded to version 47.2.0 and now I can't send e-mail from any of my different configured e-mail accounts. The last working version is 38.7. The most recent versions do not send any e-mail. Downgrading to 38.7 everything works fine. I use w7 profession 64bit and until the most recent upgrades (47.0 ) everything was fine. I hoped that the new 47.2.0 solved this problem but I had to downgrade as with the previous 47.1.0. Why ? Thanks in advance for any suggestion. Francesco

You list all of your system information, except the most likely cause of the failure. Your anti virus program.

Hi Matt! Thank you for your fast replay. The antivirus I use is Sophos versione 10.6 with the viruses signature updated every day form the University of Basilicata repository. What upset me is that until 38.7 I did not have any problem with the antivirus why should the following versions be blocked by the same antivirus ?

Because anti virus programs are often hard coded with a version of an executable that they should allow. Change the version and it kicks up a fuss and refuses to play because this new version is dangerous or whatever.

Bottom line is try Windows safe mode with networking and see if that allows latter version to work.


Safe mode with networking instructions for Windows 7,

OR it could be that th3e mail server fails best practice on SSL/TLS.

Try putting it in this web site https://www.htbridge.com/ssl/ if it fails, then that is probably the reason. There have been lots of changes to SSL/ TLS in the last couple of years.

Timestamp: 08/07/2016 16:09:20 Hi Mat, thank you for the suggestion ...but nothing worked. Using W7 in safe mode got the same behaviour. I have to add that I have accounts on Gmail, Hotmail, libero.it, unibas.it though their grade were all F according to the site you suggested. On the other hand using the consolle when I send the message irrespective on the default outgoing server I get the following message. I unistalled Chrome suspecting some problem but without any benficial outcome.

Error: An error occurred executing the cmd_sendButton command:


[Exception... "[JavaScript Error: "CASSendMessageOrg is undefined" {file: "chrome://chksend/content/chksend.js" line: 43}]'[JavaScript Error: "CASSendMessageOrg is undefined" {file: "chrome://chksend/content/chksend.js" line: 43}]' when calling method: [nsIController::doCommand]" nsresult: "0x80570021 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/globalOverlay.js :: goDoCommand :: line 100" data: yes] Source File: chrome://global/content/globalOverlay.js Line: 103

What is annoying is that it is impossible to get both versions 45.2 and the older that works.

Thanks for any suggestion ! Francesco

I solved the problem by myself. It was the add-on check-send befor sending the e-mail that does not work starting from version 45. though the install program doesn't say anything about or disable the option. Anyway thank you very much for the effort and suggesting to use the ctrl-shift-J kays to give a look to the consolle. All the best! Francesco
