Subject: email notification authentication failed 

Hi All,

I got into trouble setting up the automated email notification.

elog.cfg:

;Send automatic email notifications
SMTP host = mail.ihep.ac.cn
;SMTP host = 127.0.0.1

;Some SMTP server require username/passowrd authentication
;elogd -t <your password> for creating SMTP password
SMTP username = wux@ihep.ac.cn

SMTP Password = .JYEytMGvsHANeCIfQJXmscIt4NOtzJ8GbAnh3XH280
;SMTP Password = V3gxMzYxODAxMjAxNA==
;No Email notification
Suppress Email to users = 1

 

elogd -v:

GET /LEBT/?cmd=Forgot&login_name=wux HTTP/1.1
timezone: -28800, offset: 28800


Email from <wux@ihep.ac.cn> to wux@ihep.ac.cn, SMTP host mail.ihep.ac.cn:
