How to set smtp server on ubuntu ?

Opened this issue · 3 comments

I had an intranet server with Ubuntu 14.04 running on postfix

I wish to set up smtp in order to send notification to users when the pad contents had been changed , as below:

[etherpad.local.properties]
smtpServer = aaa.bbb.ccc:25
smtpUser = username
smtpPass = clearpassword

However, it didn't work, no email was sent.
Is the above setting wrong ? or because of the intranet smtp problem ?
Thanks

the above settings are correct. have you tried username@domain.tld yet?

I am also having an issue with this but on CentOS (though it shouldn't make that much of a difference). I get a big fat error in console output.
