Hello!


First of all I would like to thank you for this amazing tool!

I have already set it up and we are using it with no problem!

The only issue that I am facing right now is related with the email notifications configuration. I am not that senior with Linux, but I have successfully setted up a local mail sender server following this tutorial:


It works as expected so I can send an email using the command: echo "This is a test." | mail -s Testing som...@somedomain.com

But I am not able to activate it in the local.py file in the backend to start working with it.... could you give me a hand? 


DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = "x...@localdomain.com"
SERVER_EMAIL = DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL

# Uncomment and populate with proper connection parameters
# for enable email sending.
EMAIL_BACKEND = "django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend"
#EMAIL_PORT = 25
#EMAIL_HOST = "localdomain.com"
#EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
#EMAIL_HOST_USER = ""
#EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = ""


I have tried with all the configurations but none of them seems to work. Do you have any idea of how should I configure it?


I will really appreciate your help. With the notifications, everything is going to be much more easier for me and my team.


Thanks and keep working hard! :)

Hello Dany,

Thank you very much for using Taiga and for your comments.

We are not exim experts (we use to configure postfix) but it seems your config is ok. Could you check you /var/log/mail.log fail to see if something is failing?.

Regards,

Hello,

Trying to set up email notifications as well. I am using a postfix configuration that is working on the command line. Wondering if you got it to work within Taiga and if you did how? Thanks!

Hello!,

We use postfix in tree.taiga.io, what's exactly the problem with your emails?, did you check /var/log/mail.log to check if there is any problem?

Regards!,

Good morning!

I go to var/log/mail.log and there is no communication between taiga and it. I am getting other logs that were sent via postfix on the command line, nothing from taiga. Is there another file that needs to be configured besides local.py? Thanks for your help.

Hello Craig,

All the email configuration should be in local.py file, if you don't add anything Taiga will try to connect to an email server on localhost in the port 25, did you update anything in your local.py file?, could you paste here its content?.

Regards!,
