Connecting with git send-email

8141574 shared this idea ago

Completed

I'm trying to send a patch with `git send-email` with the following config:

```

smtpserver = smtp.mailbox.org
smtpencryption = STARTTLS
smtpserverport = 587

smtpAuth = login

smtpuser = email@domain

```

I also tried many variations on the values, but always get output similar to the following:

Net::SMTP>>> Net::SMTP(3.14) Net::SMTP>>> Net::Cmd(3.14) Net::SMTP>>> Exporter(5.77) Net::SMTP>>> IO::Socket::IP(0.41) Net::SMTP>>> IO::Socket(1.49) Net::SMTP>>> IO::Handle(1.48) Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 220 smtp1.mailbox.org ESMTP Postfix Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)>>> EHLO visrez.visrez.test Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-smtp1.mailbox.org Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-PIPELINING Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-SIZE 143699726 Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-ETRN Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-STARTTLS Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-8BITMIME Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250-DSN Net::SMTP=GLOB(0x55cfef92cc58)<<< 250 CHUNKING invalid smtp auth: 'login' at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 1425.

Any ideas? Support sent me here

Try to replace "STARTTLS" with tls in smtpEqncryption.

From git-send-email(1):
--smtp-encryption=<encryption> Specify in what way encrypting begins for the SMTP connection. Valid values are ssl and tls. Any other value reverts to plain (unencrypted) SMTP, which defaults to port 25.

Tried that already

Well, your git-send-email doesn't use encryption (via STARTTLS) and that's why SMTP Auth is not available. Maybe some perl modules (e.g.: IO::Socket::SSL) are not installed.

Weirdly, the tutorial in https://git-send-email.io/ works, but sending my patch for git doesn't. I asked for help on their mailing list https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss/<1523354246.807118.1679060063874%40office.mailbox.org>;

Thanks for the help so far, but if you could take a look at that, it would be greatly appreciated
