Email configuration problems


Roberto Mosqueda (2652) | asked Jul 08 '10, 1:03 p.m.
Hello all, I have one problem setting up mail configurations in RQM, I have enabled the option on the Server Administration GUI, but the mails notifications are still not working, I checked the apache logs, and this error is displayed every time that I tried to send a mail:

Does someone have any idea to fix this problem?

These are the options I used to configure the service.
Connection Properties
Property Current Value Default Value
Enable E-mail Notification true false
SMTP Server smtpserver.ibm.com none
SMTP Server port 25 25
SMTP Username user@x.ibm.com none
SMTP Password *********** none
Restrict To Whitelist false false
Whitelist none
E-mail From Address user@x.ibm.com none
E-mail From Name RQM Admin none
SMTP Reply Address none
Use STARTTLS false false

Thanks!!!

Hi, After using a blank userid and blank password (editing directly the teamserver.properties) , I could send team invitations, but email notifications are not sent automatically for work items changes (for example changing the owner of a defect), Any idea about this new issue?

Yes I tried, in fact it is working now, the problem was that it seems like when I changed the user in the browser directly trough the Email configurations page, the changes were not applied correctly for some reason, all started working correctly when I edited the teamserver.properties directly =)
