Hi All

I need to send mail through Elog. With Version 2.5.7 it seems to work only when less content is in the elog entry. But when I fill in a lot of content into one entry, it confirms the mail is sent but I dont receive the mail.

I thought it was a bug in 2.5.7, so I installed the new version 2.6-beta. With this version I am not even able to send any mail eventhough elog confirms it has been sent. Same is it case for 2.5.9.

Please let me know if there is a fix..

Thanks
Raj


This must have to do with your specific SMTP server. What you can do is to start elogd with the verbose flag like
elogd -v

then send an email entry and watch the communication between elogd and the SMTP server. There must be some kind of error message.
