Reporting Issue

[jedwards]

Hello Community,

I am trying to send reports to my gmail address. I think I setup the ssmtp.conf file correctly and filled out the Reporting module correctly in the GUI as well. If you look at the System Log below you'll see there's a "555 5.5.2 Syntax error. j4sm2875006ita.29 - gsmtp"....... I've double checked the ssmtp.conf file and I don't see any syntax errors or "gsmtp" in the file.

Could someone please take a look at the screenshots below and let me know if I am missing anything?? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP! I love this tool.

SSMTP.CONF

# /etc/ssmtp.conf -- a config file for sSMTP sendmail.
#

# The person who gets all mail for userids < 1000
# Make this empty to disable rewriting.
root=johndoe123@gmail.com

# The place where the mail goes. The actual machine name is required
# no MX records are consulted. Commonly mailhosts are named mail.domain.com
# The example will fit if you are in domain.com and your mailhub is so named.
mailhub=smtp.gmail.com:465

# Example for SMTP port number 2525
# mailhub=mail.your.domain:2525
# Example for SMTP port number 25 (Standard/RFC)
# mailhub=mail.your.domain
# Example for SSL encrypted connection
# mailhub=mail.your.domain:465

# Where will the mail seem to come from?
rewriteDomain=gmail.com

# The full hostname
hostname=mail.gmail.com

# Set this to never rewrite the "From:" line (unless not given) and to
# use that address in the "from line" of the envelope.
FromLineOverride=YES

# Use SSL/TLS to send secure messages to server.
UseTLS=YES

AuthUser=johndoe123@gmail.com
AuthPass=johndoe123
 

# Use SSL/TLS certificate to authenticate against smtp host.
#UseTLSCert=YES

# Use this RSA certificate.
#TLSCert=/etc/ssl/certs/ssmtp.pem
 

Email Configuration

From: I left this field empty (not sure if this is my problem as the ssmtp.conf file states it does not need to be given. Maybe it does?)

To: johndoe123@gmail.com

STMP Server: smtp.gmail.com

SMTP Port: 465

Domain: gmail.com

Username: johndoe123@gmail.com

Password: johndoe123

Use TLS: checked

Use STARTTLS: unchecked

Also, just tried rebooting the device.

I never really needed to use the reporting module, until today. I am also having the same/similar issue as above. I searched the forums for reporting module issues and found some things to try but so far nothing has got me working.... yet :)

I found the gmail smtp data here https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en              It says that gmail uses Port 465 (when using SSL) and Port 587 (when using TLS). I have tried using both checking TLS box for port 587 and STARTTLS for port 465. but either way im getting "failed to send email to" messages in the /tmp/reporting.log

has anyone got reporting module to work with gmail? if so would you post your successful settings in the module and /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf. Thank you.

EDIT - i even tried enabling "Allow less secure apps to access accounts" in google account settings which i think disables a capture for sign in? but didnt change. I will keep trying.

EDIT EDIT  - Evenually got it working with gmail thanks to the peeps on IRC. and some trial and error - used port 587 and STARTTLS selected only. finally worked well.

EDIT EDIT EDIT - I turned off the "Allow less secure apps to access accounts" setting on the account and it failed again so looks like its needed. At least for me, YMMV.
