Thanks sHike for the settings but I am not sure why it did not work for me.
Just an update, I managed to get the Scan to Email to work with these settings at long long last.
An outline of the steps:
(1) Set up a free account with SMTP2GO
SMTP2GO - Worldwide SMTP Service, you will need a working email address to verify your SMTP2GO account.
(2) Verify your SMTP2GO account and then login to SMTP2GO and take note of your SMTP Server and Port No given by your SMTP2GO account. FOr example, your SMTP2GO Login Email is "test@gmail.com" and password is "test123". SMTP Server is "smtpcorp.com" and SMTP Port is "2525".
(3) Then on SMTP2GO page, go to Settings > More> Address Authentication and input the email address you want to send email from without authentication, say "test@mail.com".
(4) Go to your FujiXerox MFP Centreware email settings page and enter the settings as below
(5) Machine's email address :
test@mail.com
(6) SMTP Server Address :207.58.147.66 (according to the SMTP2GO site : Some devices (fax machines etc.) may benefit from using the IP address of your SMTP server instead of its name (i.e. 207.58.147.66 if your SMTP server is smtpcorp.com, or 207.58.142.213 if your SMTP server is smtp2go.com), in my case, the IP address worked and not the name)
(7) SMTP Port No: 2525
(8) Email Send Authentication : *SMTP AUTH (Login)
(9) Login Name :
test@gmail.com (this is your SMTP2GO User Email Login)
(10) Password : test123 (this is your SMTP2GO User Password)
(11) Re-enter Password : test 123
(12) Leave POP3 Server Address BLANK
(13) Leave POP3 Server Port no at the default 995 is fine.
(14) Leave POP3 Login Name BLANK
(15) Enter POP3 Password : test123 (this is your SMTP2GO User Password)
(16) Re-enter POP3 Password : test123
(17) Leave APOP Settings as disabled
(18) Click APPLY
(19) After this, check that the SMTP Server Connection Status is either "Not Connected" or "Ready" and Scan to Email settings should be working fine.
I had to use SMTP2GO as I do not have a paid email account like Singnet, i only have free web-based email accounts like GMAIl, Yahoo and Hotmail. Read in the forums that for Singnet email, it would be easier to set up as they do not need SSL Authentication. Another thing is that I am unsure why there is a POP3 Server Settings for Scan to Email as I only need the MFP to send out the scans as emails and that requires SMTP, so the POP3 Server Settings I simply left empty except the password as the Centreware keeps requesting that I input the POP3 Password otherwise I cannot save and apply the SMTP Settings.
Anyway, it was a real PAIN getting the Scan to Email to work and hopefully if anyone is in the same situation as me, the above method works for them as well.
