Update of the mail module
Firstly, carry out the update of the mail module. You can usually find the update in the GP Manager folder under "C:\GeBioM_SQL\GpTools\SSL_Fix_R3.exe". The italicised part of the path may differ depending on the installation.
If you have an existing installation, you can find the folder by right-clicking on the GP Manager shortcut. In the following menu, select "Open file path".

Double-click to start the update; when you are asked whether the programme is allowed to make changes to the computer, confirm with "Yes".
After the installation has been started, confirm in the following dialogue with "Further".

In the next dialogue, you will be asked to enter the ports for the incoming and outgoing mail server. The currently valid ports are specified for GMX and 1&1, Web.de and Strato.
The port numbers are written to Mail.ini by the installation routine. For the most common email providers, please refer to "Table 1" for the port number.
| Email provider | Incoming mail server | Outgoing mail server |
|---|---|---|
| GMX | 995 | 587 |
| Web.de | 995 | 587 |
| 1&1 | 995 | 587 |
| Strato | 995 | 465 |
If you are not sure which port numbers to enter here, ask your email provider. Then confirm with "Further".
