Problems with eMail
Hi All,
thanks for developing OpenMeeting.
1st steps i did with the 5.0.0.1-M3-docker Version - Then i decidet to
do a full installation.
With some smal isues the tutorials work fine:
Installation OpenMeetings 5.0.0-M3 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.pdf
I did not install MariaDB, mySQL 5.7.29 was installed on the Server.
Additionaly:
Installation SSL certificates and Coturn for OpenMeetings 5.0.0-M3.pdf
Than i decided direct to use the RSA-Certificates from Letyencrypt (See
the config.xml).
It was a bit work:
the apt of ubuntu 18.03 LTS installs APR based Apache Tomcat Native
library version 1.2.21
but tomcat needs 1.2.23
So i downloaded and compiled Apache Tomcat Native library V1.2.23
Now nearly everything works -
But sending email does not work.
If a new user does the registration, the email does not work.
i configured the Parameters like in every other Software, using TLS
eMail-Adress and pass are ok.
I found the attached error in the catalina-out - Log
Has anyone an idea to solve that ?
Regards
Koni

This is most probably the first report for years :(
I have no problems with email sending (tested using several servers)
I just have checked: user/password are being used ONLY if BOTH non-empty
So I would say something really weird happening
Are you sure you only have "Time out" error in the logs?

Hi All,
the solution is:
using localhost as Mail relay.
mail..smtp.server: localhost
empty (!!!) mail.smtp.pass
mail.smtp.starttls.enable: false
thanks and regards

Check your /etc/hosts or use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost. It
could be that localhost is not in the hosts file and can't be resolved
or that it only resolves to ::1 or some other such.

You need something like
mydomain = yourdomain.tld
myorigin = $mydomain
inet_interfaces = localhost
mynetworks_style = host
The last line tells postfix to relay anything from localhost without
requiring a valid user. Don't forget to restart postfix.

Re: Problems with eMail

Hi
thanks for your answer ..
postfix on the OpenMeetings-Server is configured only to relay mail from
localhost.
My Mailbox is located at an external provider, so local postfix relays
to external provider.
That works.
i did some tests:
sending a mail from my OpenMeetings-Server to provider works, a login
is required.
Mail is delivered.
sending does not work via OpenMeeting.
Next idea was, to use the local postfix on the OM-Server to relay the mail.
I think, that is a easier way ...
(local postfix sends mails for some scripts)
mail is no problem, mail is relayed and send to my Mailbox.
I tried that in Openmeetings:
mail..smtp.server: localhost
mail.smtp.starttls.enable: false
does not work, same timeout
I suspect, that OpenMeeting tries to login while mail-transfer:
I tried that via telnet:
Send a mail with auth login via localhost.
->> i get an error : authentication not enabled
Maybe, that OpenMeetings tries to login at localhost, postfix generates
that error and "stops" receiving?
Is there a way, that OM will not try to login at mailserver ?
Or on the other side: (I am not very used in configuring postfix)
Is there a way to configure postfix, that a login is possible, but not
required ?
(if the login would be required, i have to change a lot af scripts, that
send mail)
Thanks for help

"Read timed out" usually means the connection is being blocked by FW ....
Can you check with telnet ?
