[Manuel Doninger]

sendemail.smtpUser and sendemail.smtpPass for authentication, and
sendemail.smtpEncryption for encryption.

my server require auth, i set endemail.smtpUser and sendemail.smtpPass in gerrit.config, but still get "password or username error".

maybe because i don't have send mail privilege.

It would be easier to debug with an exact error message from the log.

On which port does your server accept authentication? It's not uncommon
for SMTP servers to only accept authentication on the submission port
(587) and not on the default SMTP port (25). Is Gerrit connecting to the
port offering authentication? Are you using TLS? Some servers only offer
authentication for TLS-encrypted sessions.

Sniffing the network traffic between your Gerrit server and the SMTP
server may be an easy way to answer some of these questions (just make
sure you mask out any usernames and passwords if you post anything to
the list).
