Hi,
Updated to new version and now my smtp servers are refusing connection so no notification mails.
All configured correctly.
Any ideas
Cheers

Hello.

After upgrade mod_security may start to block core features https://abantecart.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AD/pages/3604484/Mod+security+403+406+error
Also post error you have in server or AbanteCart log (not all errors please.)

Hello.
It is looks like your server cant connect SMTP server. Try to ask help hosting support with that error

Checked with both email and web host and both have have run tests showing that the problem is not with them but rather with this application.
Do you have any  idea what this could be? thank you

No variants here. Please check availability of connect with telnet command in shell mode (see ssh access in your CPanel).

Code Select Expand

telnet smtp.zoho.com 465

You host cannot to connect. Please ask hosting provider support about it again. I thnk they lies.
