5.7.3 Authentication Fails / Mail Problem

Hello,

I got a problem with setting up my Mail Service. I checked every part and tried everyway of Login Info. But none seems to work. If anyone has an idea what could probably be the problem I would be glad to hear.

My Config looks like this

EMAIL_USE_TLS = False
EMAIL_HOST = ‘IP Adress from the exchange’
EMAIL_HOST_USER = ‘**********@domain.de
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = ‘********’
EMAIL_PORT = 25
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER
SERVER_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER

Have you verified that EMAIL_HOST is in fact the SMTP host?

Does the server use port 25 or another port?

Hello Mercury,

yeah I verified it and indeed its port 25. Checked it with other stuff besides seafile. I did add a connector for seafile also set him as anonym user. But seems like that did not change the current problem.

My guess is that the authentication mechanism offered by your exchange server are not supported by Seafile.

You might need to use a SMTP proxy or relay.
