Subject Name: /OU=Domain Control Validated/CN=*. I also found smtp-cli to be useful for debugging because it has a verbose mode that shows you the exact SMTP conversation when you attempt to send mail and helps you ensure you have all the access details correct. Once my account my provisioned, the scan to email feature finally worked as expected! SendGrid requires you to have a domain and point 's CNAME to before they activate your account.

Since I needed a SMTP server that ran on port other than 25, but didn't require TLS, I ended up signing up for a free plan with SendGrid and using their STMP server as they run their servers on port 2525 besides 25. So at this point, I know that something's broken with Verizon's SMTP server, as it was publicizing support for CRAM-MD5 but failing when attempting to use it even though I had the right password, and could isolate it to problem with their SMTP server configuration. Here's how I ran the proxy nc -l -p 12345 I had to figure out what was going on when the printer connected to the SMTP server, so I ran a tcp proxy using netcat and had the printer talk to the verizon SMTP via my proxy, so I could capture the conversation. That is till today, when I noticed the scan to email function stopped working, and the printer gave a short 'Sending failed' message with no other details. However I stumbled upon a unpublicized SMTP server () that Verizon had that allowed plain text connections with MD5 authentication and had things working. Verizon required that you SSL to connect their STMP server, and this printer doesnt' support it, so that's out. Most ISP's these day block outgoing connections to port 25 to fight spam, and either require you to use their SMTP server or connect to a mail server on another port besides 25 that's usually running over SSL. In the list of available wireless networks, click on the name of the Brother Ad-Hoc network to highlight it. Press (Settings) or Menu > All Settings > Network > WLAN > Setup Wizard. Connect the power cord to your Brother machine and then connect it to an AC power outlet (electrical socket). Click Control Panel Network and Internet Network and Sharing Center. Set up a Brother machine on a wireless network. However, the firmware does not support SMTP over SSL, but does support SMTP authentication. Your computer and Brother machine will then be directly connected through an Ad-Hoc wireless connection. Once you have the firmware upgraded, you can configure the STMP sever by logging into the web-console on the printer.

Doesn't help that they call this feature 'i-Fax' instead of 'Scan to Email' as you would expect!

However I can't imagine how someone who is not technically savvy could ever get this working.įor one, the scan to email feature is not enabled by default and requires you to download a firmware update from Brother's website to enable. I recently got the Brother MFC7860 all-in-one, primarily because I wanted the ability to scan directly to email.
