Mail not sent (not even processed)

JC83 — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 13:13:45 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to have a dev server which is sort of copy of the production one but in community edition : same database (a copy) and same date (a copy).

I'm using the docker version of the 7.4 and I set in the alfresco-global.properties all the parameter (which are the same in the production server) ..

Well, to test I did a rule that send an email each time a document is created in a dir .. And it's not working. I don't have any error in log, any traffic on the 25 port, any mail ..

Do you have any idea of what I'm doing wrong ?

mail.host=sender.ooooo.fr mail.port=25 mail.username= mail.password= mail.protocol=smtp mail.smtp.auth=false mail.smtp.timeout=10000 mail.smtp.starttls.enable=false mail.smtp.debug=true mail.encoding=UTF-8 mail.from=noreply@ooooo.fr mail.testmessage.send=true mail.testmessage.to=me@adrr.com mail.testmessage.subject=TEST MESSAGE FROM ALFRESCO@ooooo.fr mail.testmessage.text=god is dead

Hi,

some mail server has a whitelisted IP configuration: have you tried installing a fake smtp server on the alfresco server to double check if the email is not sent?

Or you can try sending an email via script/powershell from the server where Alfresco is installed.

HI,

I have found by myself ..

In the default docker-compose.xml that I had there was :

-Ddev.email.not.sent=true

which appears to disable mail to be sent

So I just put

-Ddev.email.not.sent=true

and .. voila !
