  Hello,
  
  We've noticed that in Moodle 2.9, HTML formatting is stripped from Quickmail email messages to recipients whose email address was manually entered into the 'Additional email addresses' field. Recipients who were selected from the 'Potential recipients' (enrolled users), received emails with HTML formatting intact.

  Now that 3.0 is officially released, why one working on quickmail to work in 3.0? This is the error I get.
  
  
  Plugin "block/quickmail" is defective or outdated, can not continue, sorry.
  
  More information about this error

  Just upgraded our testing site to Moodle 3.0 and installed Quickmail v1.5.0 (2014042914). I am experiencing the same errors described by Yong Ra on Thu, 5 Nov 2015. Looking forward to a version that will work with 3.0; we can't upgrade our production site to 3.0 without this plugin working. It's a great addition to Moodle that we use a lot. Thanks!

  We also get the errors that both Yong and Joe mentioned... and we also can't update to 3.0 until Quickmail works - it has become far too integrated into our workflow to live without. Would love an update soon. Thanks!

  They should make quickmail as part of the core. It is so useful block. I am surprise that this is not part of core or other developers develop similar blocks. Internal messaging is good, but if a teacher needs to send email directly to student, internal message do not work.
  
  Does anyone know who we can ask about getting quickmail to be part of core?

  Guys, I started using the plugin, but it appears this error and does not send the email. What can it be? I'm in a local version

  We do not support PHPMailer. The problem you've described is that PHPMailer is unable to authenticate. There is not enough information given to further diagnose your issue.

  If your authentication is failing, there are several likely causes:
  
  You have the wrong username or password
  Your connection is being diverted to a different server (as above)
  You have specified authentication without encryption
  Generally you do not want to send a username or password over an unencrypted link. Some SMTP authentication schemes do add a minimal level of security (sending short hashes rather than clear text), but these provide only minimal protection, and so most servers do not allow authentication without encryption. Fix this by setting SMTPSecure = 'tls' and Port = 587 as well as setting the Username and Password properties.

  I installed QM version 2015122912 on Moodle 3.1 [linux, mysql, apache]. When I attempt to send to a gmail account, I get the message "could not email [student name]." Are there additional setups I need to check outside of QM?

  RE my "could not email [student name]" above (12 Apr 2016), it turned out to be a relay issue with the mail server. I found this out after turning on the "Debug email sending" switch in Debugging.
