SABnzbd Forums

Hello, I have been using SABnzbd+ without issues for a few months.  A couple days ago, my downloads slowed down to about half the speed I normally get.  I have tried using other programs, such as Grabit, and I get my normal download speeds.  I can deal with the slower downloads, because hopefully they will pick up again, as they have done in the past.

But another issue that I find more annoying is I have been getting "ERROR [email] Failed to connect to mail server" after each completed job, and I am no longer receiving emails. 

I am running SABnzbd+ 0.4.6 on FreeNAS 0.69.  My smtp server is:  smtp.(my ISP).net, and I have never had any issues until a few days ago.

Start up SABnzbd once with the --clean commandline option.
This will clear the internal admin, alas it will also clear your download history.

I have no explanation for the email problem,
unless the sabnzbd.ini file got corrupted and the username/pw is damaged.
Is there an email program on the NAS that you can use to test the email connection?

Thanks for the suggestions.  I was able to fix the email problem when using a different access point.  Must be something with the ISP.

Thank you.
