Hi, Neha Verma, It seems like you are setting the email configuration.

please following the steps to find where you are blocked:

1. ping the smtp host ok

2. telnet the smtp port to smtp host ok

3. If ping and telnet are ok, checking firewall under window, turn off selnux or execute "setsebool httpd_can_sendmail true" to allow apache to send mail under linux

Hi,

 I tried telnet 172.26.56.26 25
Connecting To 172.26.56.26...Could not open connection to the host, on port 25: Connect failed


So, do I need to get this port open for this IP?

Hi, Neha Veram ,

Yes,  If sending email by zentao, zentao server need be able to communicate with your smtp server.

If any problems, welcome back.

Hi Neha, The message seems like that your connection is ok, but your authentication of smtp is not passed.


The reasons are varied, please contact us with whatsapp:+86 18560607261

Thanks Pedro for all the help, it got fixed for me after some configuration changes. I just got one question that what triggers email notifications at different stages of defects.
