Bug #12211
closedEmail Notifications not working with Special Characters in Password
0%
Description
I have tested this and confirmed with two different gmail accouts.
an account has a ! is password. This account fails with testing;
Could not send the message to user@domain.com -- Error: PLAIN authentication failure
[SMTP: Invalid response code received from server
(code: 535, response: 5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted.

an account has no special characters. This account works fine as
SMTP testing e-mail successfully sent*
therefore quite clearly, passwords with special characters are not getting parsed accordingly. Could it be a bug?
I have an "!" and "$" character's in password.
hopefully this could be resolved.
I am certian this is affected accross all versions.
I am using v2.5.2 atm. I could test on earlier versions, if i can download it some where.
