I am having real difficulties posting on this forum today.

The following code is in the file, and you just need to update with your mail settings.

# Email configuration
mail.host=
mail.port=25
mail.username=
mail.password=
# Set this value to UTF-8 or similar for encoding of email messages as required
mail.encoding=UTF-8
# Set this value to 7bit or similar for Asian encoding of email headers as required
mail.header=
mail.from.default=

thanx for reply. i updated dat, but still not able to send mail. where dis mail will go? in user's email space or user's email ID(like ranjeet4u@gmail.com).

The email will be sent to the users email address that was specified in the user setup. 
Are you getting an errors in the alfresco log.  If not, then I would suggest troubleshooting the mail configuration.  I tried setting it up with my my smtp/pop settings of gmail, and enabled this in gmail, but I could not get it to work, so I used the settings from the ISP and works fine.  You will need to stop and start alfresco after making your changes.

Hello to all,
I tried to configure email params in a distinct file properties as like mytestemail.properties, that I saved in the extension dir.

I think that it will override the email settings (dummy ) of the repository.properties.

Do Emails can be send as a notification? Or is it necessary JVM email server as I read in the wiki?


does email service work in Alfresco? Is it possible to have a clear idea if this service is working or not?

I defined a user in the space and create an action to send email to this user with my params.

I obtaneid this error

Hi,
You can override the smtp configuration in the file custom_repository.properties in the extension directory.

The default from email change it in the web-client-config-custom.xml file.

Also if you have send mail rules configured you have to recreate it because they'll associated with the default

Hope this info helps you.
