I Stefan, it works with the 587 port.

I believe Yanick means the SMTP port, not the port under which elogd is listening. The SMPT port is hard wired to 25, because port 587 was not yet defiend when I wrote that code. I can make this a variable, but only if it works. So Yanick can you test if port 587 accepts normal SMTP commands? We don't have such a new server at our lab and I cannot test it. Under Windows you can open a command prompt and telnet to the mail server:

telnet <server> 587
HELO test
MAIL FROM: test

your server should then reply with "220 ..." and "250 ..." messages. Once this works, I will implement the variable SMTP port.

The following options are specific to the [global] section:
Port = <port>
Specifies the TCP port under which the server is listening. Default is 80. Can be superseeded via the '-p' command line flag.

Hi,

We've made changes in our network and now we have to use port 587 instead of port 25, how can i edit that parameter?

Thanks

Ok, so I added the option 

STMP port = xxx

where you can specify 587 to override the default port 25. I committed the changes to bitbucket. Can you compile from sources, or do I have to dig out my dusty Windows PC?

I put a new executable for you under https://elog.psi.ch/elog/download/windows/

It's named elog314-2.exe

Best,

I changed the code ot include the CSS file directly in the email body. So no need any more for external CSS files. I dropped the "Email CSS URL" option as well.

We operate ELOG in an intranet. Many logbooks do send out emails; several use HTML content formatting.
If I watch HTML formatted emails from the intranet, then everything is fine.
If I try to read them from home, my email client hangs when it tries to read the CSS file from out intranet (URL: https://elog-gfa.psi.ch/SLS/elog.css).
Is there a way to set a URL for the email CSS?
Then I could simply copy the CSS file to the internet accessible location and the emails would be properly formatted in the intranet and from home.
 
I've tried to use "Use Email URL = ", but it turned out that this will change all base URL's in the email BUT the one in the CSS :-(
So I would need a config "Email CSS URL = " to set this.
 
Here is a patch that does what I want, but it might have some side-effects I'm not yet aware of:
7636,7643c7636,7638
<    if (absolute_link) {
<       if (lbs != NULL && getcfg(lbs->name, "Email CSS URL", str, sizeof(str)))
<          strlcpy(css_base, str, sizeof(css_base));
<       else if (lbs == NULL && getcfg("global", "Email CSS URL", str, sizeof(str)))
<          strlcpy(css_base, str, sizeof(css_base));
<       if (css_base[0] == 0)
<         compose_base_url(lbs, css_base, sizeof(css_base), FALSE);
<    } else

  68893   Wed Feb 20 22:24:05 2019 Idea Alan Grantagrant@winnipeg.caRequestWindows3.1.2New feature request for Options list

Is it possible to include an option in the next release to have the Options list reference a text file of attributes rather than explicity listing the attributes in the Config file directly?

This would make it much easier to maintain a particular list that is referenced in several log books.
