3.40. Email does not work after upgrading to 1.95?

I upgraded my software and now I cannot send my quotes thru EstiMate what happened?

EstiMate changed over to a new email method in 1.95 to try and solve some issues for our customers. However the former protocols were left in place and here is a way to switch back.

NOTE: This procedure involves modifying the computers registry. This should not cause any problem, but the procedure listed below is:

** At your own risk **

1. Click Start > Run
2. Type "regedit" in the box and click OK
3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\EstiMate
4. In the right panel, right click and select New > DWORD value
5. Name it "UseOldEmail" (without the quotes)
6. Double click on it and change its value to 1
7. Close the registry editor and restart EstiMate

EstiMate should now use the old (pre-1.95) method of sending emails.
