It just dawned on me that this can't be the issue since both POP3 and SMTP are affected. DOH!

Hello:


... can't be the issue since both POP3 and SMTP are affected.

Exactly.
The problem at hand (at least how I see it) is one of authorisation from the receiving server.
This the [PMail] log I posted at the start of this thread:

Like I wrote earlier on:

ie: -ERR authentication failed


This does not seem to be happening to [gmx.xxx] accounts located in the same IP ranges/region as the [gmx.xxx] servers.
I have not seen a report of this not happening to [gmx.xxx] accounts located in ouside the same IP ranges/region as the [gmx.xxx] servers.

Nope, I'm in Brazil. Although I can make use of a VPN service it was not the current case.

Hello:


... in Brazil.

Right ...
Now we can establish a pattern:
1.
[gmx.xxx] accounts located outside the same IP ranges/region as the [gmx.xxx] servers have the problem described in the OP. eg: @sawbona and @euler.
2.
[gmx.xxx] accounts located in the same IP ranges/region as the [gmx.xxx] servers do not have the problem described in the OP. eg: @Brian Fluet and @msetzerii (?).
Anyone else?
3.
It is no longer possible for anyone outside the IP ranges/region as the [gmx.xxx] servers to open an account. I have verified this happens with [gmx.net], [gmx.com] and [gmx.co.uk] and expect it to be the same with other [gmx.xxx] servers.

They are effectively being filtered by IP.



We’re very sorry – we can’t sign you up
Important Information:
Your IP address suggests you are trying to sign up in a country where GMX registration is no longer possible. Unfortunately, this means we can’t create an account for you.



Can anyone else confirm this is so?
That said, as of 5' ago, I could still log into the [gmx.com] and [gmx.net] webmail pages with Firefox, log in to my accounts as always and check my inbox, clean up SPAM, etc.


Cannot figure out what is going on.


Like I mentioned earlier on:


One would think that the POP3/SMTP/IMAP server logs full of rejected PWs from valid users would raise a flag somewhere.


If the people at GMX support are asking for a screenshot, they either don't seem to know where to look for clues or [fill in here].


Best,

Hello:

either don't seem to know where to look for clues or [fill in here].


I seem to have made some progress.
After clearing a few stored emails and pondering whether to delete my [gmx.xxx] accounts I decided to try once again.
So I went to my [PMail] settings and reset them, so to speak.
ie: changed them and then changed them back again.
Surprisingly, I actually managed to get POP3 and SMTP working at both my [gmx.net] and [gmx.com] accounts.
No idea why / how / what ...
Maybe they fixed something?


No luck with [IMAP] at the moment.


At least these POP3 and SMTP are working now.
Hopefully without further issues but given what has transpired, I would not bet on it.


These are the settings I used for both accounts with my PMail v4.73:


POP3 - Server pop.gmx.xxx     port: 995   Via direct SSL connect
SMTP - Server mail.gmx.xxx port: 465 Via direct SSL connect
[x] Login to the SMTP server using a POP3 username / password
From this POP3 definition: [POP3, account_name]
[x] Do not use CRAM-MD% authentication even if it is advertised

That is all for now.
I'd appreciate it if other affected parties would check and see if these settings work for them.


Best,


A.


Hello: [quote=&quot;pid:58332, uid:28059&quot;]either don&#039;t seem to know where to look for clues or [fill in here].[/quote] I seem to have made _some_ progress. After clearing a few stored emails and pondering whether to delete my [gmx.xxx] accounts I decided to try once again. So I went to my [PMail] settings and _reset_ them, so to speak. ie: changed them and then changed them back again. Surprisingly, I actually managed to get POP3 and SMTP working at both my [gmx.net] and [gmx.com] accounts. No idea why / how / what ... Maybe they fixed something? No luck with [IMAP] at the moment. At least these POP3 and SMTP are working now. Hopefully without further issues but given what has transpired, I would not bet on it. These are the settings I used for both accounts with my PMail v4.73: ```` POP3 - Server pop.gmx.xxx port: 995 Via direct SSL connect SMTP - Server mail.gmx.xxx port: 465 Via direct SSL connect [x] Login to the SMTP server using a POP3 username / password From this POP3 definition: [POP3, account_name] [x] Do not use CRAM-MD% authentication even if it is advertised ```` That is all for now. I&#039;d appreciate it if other affected parties would check and see if these settings work for them. Best, A.

One of my GMX accounts returned to work today, both POP3 and IMAP. I'm assuming SMTP is also working:

N.B. GMX suggested I enable two-factor authentication to resolve the reported authentication issues. That wasn't the problem, it seems. In fact, two-factor authentication appears to interfere with POP3, SMTP, and IMAP authentication. I had to disable it to regain control over my second GMX account. I haven't received any communication from GMX user support yet; I only noticed that the messages stuck in those accounts started appearing on my laptop. Not so bad, but their support is quite poor.

Hello:

One of my GMX accounts returned to work today

Then it is / has evidently been a problem at their end.


suggested I enable two-factor authentication

I respectfully suggest not doing it.
On one hand, I don't think they (gmx support) have a handle on things.
And on the other, (from what I have read) you will need to have a separate PW for each service. ie: POP#, SMTP, IMAP ...

... two-factor authentication appears to interfere with POP3, SMTP, and IMAP authentication.

Probably because of the above.
Too much hassle.


I still don't have a working IMAP profile.
Not a great loss for me as I have never really used it: webmail will do fine if/when I need to check whatever has been labelled SPAM is really SPAM.


On attempting to connect to an [gmx.xxx] IMAP profile I get this from PMail:


Profile 'GMXxxx IMAP':
The IMAP server that manages this mailbox or folder has reported an error
during the operation you have attempted to perform.

The operation cannot be completed.

My settings are these:


IMAP - Server imap.gmx.xxx     port: 993   Via direct SSL connect
[ ] Disable certificate validation
[ ] Only use SSLv3

Are you using the same IMAP settings I posted above?
Are you using the same SMTP settings I posted previously?


Best,

Hello:

Just checked and IMAP on both accounts is working now.
So problem solved.
Till next time. 8^°


Frankly, in all the years I have used these two [gmx.xxx] accounts (mid 2016?) nothing like this ever happened, at least that I noticed.
They have not had much (daily) use so all in all, I suppose it makes for a decent average.


To keep in mind:
[gmx.xxx] account creation is now restricted by originating IP region.
ie: if you delete it, you will not be able to recover it.


Thanks for your input.
Best,
S.
