Email not working

It seems like after the last update the Surface Hub can not send emails, e.g. sharing the contents of the Whiteboard at the end of the meeting.  When I click the "Share" button and select email the [send email] button is grayed out and next to it this message: "You can't send email now because of an internal error". Any ideas?!

    Hi Jon, our Surface Hub is experiencing the same error, were you ever able to find a resolution?  

     

    Thank you.

      Best guess based on the above is possibly expired password on the device account. I found one of our Surface Hubs last week not rotating the password properly. The password expired and we started seeing this internal error on Whiteboard.

      After resetting the password, I had to edit the device account and put the new password in, before restarting the Surface Hub. Fixed the problem for us.

        HI Daniel, I am seeing the same problem on our Surface HUb, can you let me know where you reset the account password?   We have an AD account for the HUB but it is set to "Password Never Expires".   I am wondering if there is another account for it I need to update.   Thanks you!

  • No ideas without access to the device as I haven't seen this error myself.
    You could always remove the account and re-add it, or failing that contact support and have them troubleshoot it with you.
