Hey Everyone I want to set-up the smtp email configuration in the dspace 6. What changes were made? *1.) Edited file dspace.cfg*
##### Email settings ###### # SMTP mail server (allows DSpace to send email notifications) mail.server = smtp.gmail.com # SMTP mail server authentication username and password (if required) mail.server.username =sunakshitejw...@gmail.com mail.server.password =dspace # SMTP mail server alternate port (defaults to 25) mail.server.port = 465 # From address for mail # All mail from the DSpace site will use this 'from' address mail.from.address = sunakshitejw...@gmail.com # Name of a pre-configured Session object to be fetched from a directory. # This overrides the Session settings above. If none can be found, then DSpace # will use the above settings to create a Session. #mail.session.name = Session # When feedback is submitted via the Feedback form, it is sent to this address # Currently limited to one recipient! feedback.recipient = dspace-h...@myu.edu # General site administration (Webmaster) e-mail # System notifications/reports and other sysadmin emails are sent to this address mail.admin = sunakshitejw...@gmail.com # Recipient for server errors and alerts (defaults to mail.admin) alert.recipient = ${mail.admin} # Recipient for new user registration emails (defaults to unspecified) #registration.notify = # Set the default mail character set. This may be overridden by providing a line # inside the email template "charset: <encoding>", otherwise this default is used. mail.charset = UTF-8 # A comma-separated list of hostnames that are allowed to refer browsers to email forms. # Default behaviour is to accept referrals only from dspace.hostname mail.allowed.referrers = ${dspace.hostname} # Pass extra settings to the Java mail library. Comma-separated, equals sign between # the key and the value. For example: mail.extraproperties = mail.smtp.socketFactory.port=465, \ mail.smtp.socketFactory.class=javax.net.ssl. SSLSocketFactory, \ mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback=false # An option is added to disable the mailserver. By default, this property is set to false # By setting mail.server.disabled = true, DSpace will not send out emails. # It will instead log the subject of the email which should have been sent # This is especially useful for development and test environments where production data is used when testing functionality. #mail.server.disabled = false But i am unable to register a new user through a gmail account in dspace. *2.) install smtp using the command * sudo apt-get install msmtp But still is doesnt work *The error message is :: **unable to send message to this address.* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
