I am currently running MT4 (Build 4 1440) is a Windows 2025 server.
I am aware that Windows has removed the in-built SMTP feature from the 2025 servers, so I use Brevo as a third-arty SMTP provider.
The result on the MT4 terminal is constant & it’s absolutely bloody stupid:
2025.04.03 11:52:54.389 Mail: login to smtp-relay.brevo:587 failed
despite MT5 having no issues whatsoever.
I have tried every single SMTP provider out there & I'm just keep getting the same result, and I am about to scream.
- Yes, I have checked the
Enablebox. - Yes, I have restarted the MT4 terminal 2,957,345,234,435 times
It can't be a Windows Server issue as my credentials work on MT5 so it must be an issue with MT4. It's not the SMTP credentials as I use these on other applications I've built.
I have never had such an utterly stupid situation in my entire life. I am absolutely infuriated.
What complete utter crap this piece of software is.
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
