Description

Hi, I'm trying to setup SMTP mailer.

I put my SMTP settings and run testmail function, i received "Testmail successfully sent" output but i didnt received any email.
Then, I set wrong password to check for the output and for my suprise I also received "Testmail successfully sent", so that function for sure dosent work correctly.

Btw, Is any chance that Hetzner blocks SMTP requests and that's I cannot send any mail through Vikunja ?

Best regards

Did you check the logs of your mail server?

You can also enable more mail logs in Vikunja: https://vikunja.io/docs/config-options#mail

Then, I set wrong password to check for the output and for my suprise I also received "Testmail successfully sent" output, so that function for sure dosent work correctly.

The cli does not ask for a password. Where did you set a password?

I set my password for SMTP by VIKUNJA_MAILER_PASSWORD env.

services:
  vikunja:
    image: vikunja/vikunja:unstable
    environment:
      VIKUNJA_SERVICE_PUBLICURL: website
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_HOST: db
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_PASSWORD: password

      VIKUNJA_SERVICE_ENABLEREGISTRATION: true
      VIKUNJA_SERVICE_JWTSECRET:  secret
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_ENABLED: true
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_HOST: smtp-mail.outlook.com
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_PORT: 587
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_USERNAME: account@outlook.com
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_PASSWORD: password 
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_FROMEMAIL: email@outlook.com
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_FORCESSL: false
      VIKUNJA_MAILER_AUTHTYPE: login

Update:

Ok, now i got more detailed output with debug log level. I'll try to investigate it more and come with an answer.

Thank you
