If I want to use smtp.gmail.com as my "Admin Email" preference set in http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin§ion=General; the editor doesn't have the required fields or capabilities to provide "authenticated SMTP" required by Gmail and numerous other mail providers per http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=13287 ::
*Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS:* smtp.gmail.com (use > authentication) > *Use Authentication*: Yes > *Use STARTTLS*: Yes (some clients call this SSL) > *Port*: 465 or 587 > The error message emitted from "registration" indicates what's missing to support authenticated SMTP: Error number 10006 in 10: Could not send mail to server smtp.gmail.com port 25 error code 530 (530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. 27sm1167462wff.51 com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 10006 in 10: Could not send mail to server smtp.gmail.com port 25 error code 530 (530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. 27sm1167462wff.51 Are there any plans to support this for 1.8 rc1 ? (I'm using 1.8 trunk, rev 15391) It's not essential to do this, but it could end up being a fair amount of extra admin work to get it working. One workaround would be to setup a local SMTP server (bind only to localhost), set the "Admin email" pref to 127.0.0.1 and then have the local SMTP server use TLS to communicate with your organization's secure SMTP server. Note that this issue is broader than just TLS-based SMTP. Most other SMTP servers are no longer open and unauthenticated due to the issue of spam and mail forgery. Setting up Xwiki with such an SMTP server results in the following error on registration: Error number 10006 in 10: Could not send mail to server smtp.kawlich.eduport 25 error code 550 (550 5.7.1 ...
