This issue is most likely related to strict certificate validation when connecting to user-configured SMTP servers. In future WiFi Guard releases we will adjust the validation process to be more permissive, thus allowing broader compatibility with various SMTP servers.

For now, please try enabling "Use automatic settings" on the E-mail tab in WiFi Guard settings. It should provide an immediate fix for this problem.

The "automatic" setting solved the problem. Thanks for your fast help.
