Mail Configuration

[Alexandros Panagiotou]

Hello,

I'm installing synnefo and I'm stuck on the email configuration. I set up a mail server (exim4). In 00-snf-common-admin.conf I set up admins,managers and let the rest in comments.

Works perfect, but the emails have subject: "Synnefo Cloud" and Sender: "cl...@synnefo.org".

I want to set my subject and sender name.

When i uncomment the following:

EMAIL_HOST = "node1.it.uom.gr"

EMAIL_HOST_USER = "root"

EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = "mypass"

EMAIL_SUBJECT_PREFIX = "[it.uom.gr] "

DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = "ro...@node1.it.uom.gr"

CONTACT_EMAIL = "ro...@node1.it.uom.gr"

SERVER_EMAIL = "ro...@node1.it.uom.gr"

I get "The service is currenty down for maintenance" on signup and the following email send to the admins: 

From: ro...@node1.it.uom.gr

Subject: [synnefo uom] ERROR (EXTERNAL IP): Internal Server Error: /astakos/ui/signup

Hello,

In order to change the server name that appears in the email subjects

you have to set the ASTAKOS_SITENAME setting appropriately.

Also, for the sender you have to change the SERVER_EMAIL setting.

Hello Alexandros,

this could be an issue with the configuration of your SMTP server.
Please see below.

This seems to be the problem, "SMTP AUTH extension" not supported by
server. It seems the login() function of smtplib.py cannot authenticate
against your SMTP server.

Can you verify that user/password authentication works with your SMTP
server? Where did you find the values for EMAIL_HOST_USER, EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD?
Can you try commenting them out completely in your Synnefo configuration,
so it does not attempt to authenticate before sending email?

Regards,
Vangelis.

To sove the issue,set this two credentials like this: EMAIL_HOST_USER = "postfix"
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = ""

Postfix is the "smtpuser".
