qmail about nodemailer HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi, this issue is not know. Could you set debug:true in SMPT settings and copy the console output here (replace real server names and e-mail addresses from the log before pasting, since these are not needed).

from nodemailer.

All it gives me is "error occurred,Timeout waiting for response from server"

The only difference between the config in the other package is it allows me to include a domain setting to identify itself to the server. Is it possible to add that to the SMTP config?

If I set SSL to false I get some more info.

You can set the identifying domain with hostname

SMTP = {
    host:"smtp.example.com",
    hostname: "mydomain",
    ....
}

The default value is the machine name (os.hostname()) or if not set then [127.0.0.1]

I've been playing around with various setting but can't get it to work. Here's the settings that work for
https://github.com/Marak/node_mailer

email.send({
      host : "mail.mydomain.com",              // smtp server hostname
      port : "2525",                     // smtp server port
      ssl: true,                        // for SSL support - REQUIRES NODE v0.3.x OR HIGHER
      domain : "mydomain.com",            // domain used by client to identify itself to server
      to : "[email protected]",
      from : "'Godfrey' <[email protected]>",
      subject : "Godfrey added "+count+" contacts to consumers DB",
      template : "./templates/consumersadded.txt",
      data : {"cheesyquote" : message,
              "count" : count },

      authentication : "login",        // auth login is supported; anything else is no auth
      username : "dnJfYxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxEuY29t",       // Base64 encoded username
      password : "N2xxxxxxx=="       // Base64 encoded password
    },
    function(err, result){
      if(err){ console.log(err); }
    });


}

From the log I can see that that the server expects AUTH LOGIN as the login method but Nodemailer uses AUTH PLAIN which is a bit similar but not the same. Some servers don't advertise support for AUTH PLAIN but actually they do support it, so Nodemailer tries to use it anyway.

Maraks node_mailer on the contrary to Nodemailer uses AUTH LOGIN instead of AUTH PLAIN - that is why it works with this particular server. In a future release I'll add better AUTH handling for Nodemailer but this is probably not coming before June.

AUTH LOGIN turned out to be quite easy to implement, so didn't bother to wait until June :)
