Re: Email notification does not work

Dinesh Bapat wrote:

I have SMTP server that requires authentication

Whenever a new user 'self registers' to E-log, I get an automated email saying so. Hence, the SMTP setting are correct and working.

However, for any entry made to log, no email notification is generated. error '5.5.4 Invalid Address'

suppress notification checkbox is 'unchecked'

Kindly help.

Turn on logging with

Logfile = elog.log

then you will see all communication betwen elogd and the SMTP server in the logfile. You probably will see the source of the error there.

Re: Email notification (bug tracking system)

Bertram Metz wrote:

Hello,

I'd like to use ELOG like a bug tracking system. I've created an attribute with the name AssignedTo. The attribute type is set to userlist. The value of AssignedTo is set to the full name of the selected user. There is no simple relationship between the full name and the email address on our system. Is it possible to get the email address of a user from the full name?

Attributes = Author, Category, Hardware, Software, Subject, Keywords, Status, AssignedTo
Options Category = Bug Report{1}, Observation{2}, Other{3}
Type AssignedTo = userlist
Show Attributes = Author, Category, Hardware, Software, Subject, Keywords
{1} Show Attributes = Author, Category, Hardware, Software, Subject, Keywords, Status, AssignedTo
Required Attributes = Author, Hardware, Software, Category
Options Status = new, open, confirmed, closed
;the following line does not work, since $AssinedTo contains the full name of the user
Email Category Bug Report = $AssignedTo@company.com

Kind regards,
Bertram

I implemented the attribute type useremail for you. This can be used like:

Attributes = Author, Catorory, AssignedTo
Type AssignedTo = useremail
Email Category Bug Report = $AssignedTo

You will see only the email address of the people in the list, but since the email address usually contains the name this might be enough. A different system would have been too difficult to implement. The new feature is contained in SVN revision 1754.

Re: Email format flags

I've been tried to format our email notification messages
like this forum, but I couldn't.

Every email notification is sent in plain text although I've tried
all options listed in documentation about Email Format flags. Crying

What is the Email Format flag that I need to use ?
Is there something else that I have to configure ? ?)

The email notification is under revision right now, that's why 2.6.0 is still in beta. It will change again before the final release. I want to make a multipart/alternative encoding, where plain text and HTML are sent in the same email, and the user can select on the email client which part to view.

In the 2.6.0-beta5, you can select the eamil format with

Email encoding = 4

which then produces the same notifications as the forum.

Following options can be used to format the email body:
