3.4.b Outbound SMTP settings for Gmail...Anyone Succeeded?

[afrescoaero]

Hello All,

I have been battling this issue for days to no avail. I wish to use the gmail smtp server to send my "invites" from alfresco to new users, however I still havn't managed to solve it and i receive the "0 invites sent, 1 failure" error..

Does anyone have a working example of code they've used in the Oubound SMTP configuration file? and any other file they've edited to make it work? Any working code examples would be appreciated.


Best Regards

and if your version is > 3.4 (so 3.5 and 4.0) also make sure

notification.email.siteinvite is true to send out emails for invitations.

where is this "notification.email.siteinvite"? is is the one in the profile as "email notification feed"?

this is in alfresco-global.properties.
